Winter’s officially landed and southerners are rugging up – but up north, June is prime time. The wet’s done, the dry has settled in, and our great northern lands are open for business.
Here’s how I’m prepping for our next trip, getting the team ready…and the answer is no, I don’t rent them out!
But seriously, remember, camping IS the cheapest holiday you can get! Here’s how to travel further, spend less and keep regional Australia turning over this winter.
Time to visit camps opening after Cyclone Narelle damage… like Litchfield Safari Camp after 3.5m of rain and soon to open their NEW cafe! Unfortunately, not all is good news…
Base yourself for longer in one spot – destress and enjoy nature!
Rule of Three
Drive under 3 hours, arrive before 3 pm, stay 3 nights – savings, sanity and sunsets.
So you can afford the paid attractions – add in silo art, walking trails and swimming holes – the best stuff often costs nothing,like Katherine’s hot springs!
From Curtin Springs to Robin Falls – free camps stretch the trip and the budget.

Queensland Day is on June 6th. Check out this reel of our favourite Qld campgrounds.
Go country. Support small towns. Keep Australia travelling this winter!
