Caravan parks near Maitland

Surrounded by picturesque parks in the Hunter Valley wine region, caravanners have it all while camping near Maitland. Cruise into a holiday park in town, perhaps offering powered sites, hot showers, flush toilets, and laundry facilities. Then, head to Myall Lakes National Park, roughly an hour northeast, where 40 kilometres of beaches and a coastal lake system create a prime escape from hot January days. Here, caravan-friendly campgrounds feature BBQs, toilets, and boat ramps. Don't forget to check out the heathlands that come to life with wildflowers in spring, or the annual whale migration that begins in late June. Plus, catch the best view from the shore at Sugarloaf Point. The World Heritage-listed Gondwana Rainforest in Barrington Tops National Park is another must-see spot, home to tree-lined trails perfect for when cooler temperatures arise in autumn. Walking tracks range from multi-day adventures to wheelchair-accessible, so there’s a scenic route for every kind of camper. Then, park for the night at a riverside campsite with amenities like picnic tables and toilets.
