Riverdell is 166 acres located on the eastern side of the Blackall Range extending down to the Mooloolah River headwaters. Escape off grid to enjoy the peace and quiet, watch the cattle grazing in the paddocks, spot the native birdlife or cuddle up by the fire in your own secluded paradise. Sunrises are spectacular while sunsets by open campfire are also a highlight of the Riverdell experience. Take a short walk up the creek, west of The Junction carpark above the camp site to see some scenic rockpools and waterfalls in the cool of the rainforest canopy. There is plenty to do and see in the area including exploring nearby Mary Cairncross Scenic Reserve, Gardeners Falls, Kondalilla National Park, Australia Zoo, indulge in a tasting at the Barrel at Clouds Vineyard opposite the front gate, stroll through Maleny Botanic Gardens & Bird World or take a short drive to some of Australia’s most beautiful beaches.

Hope Valley

43 sites · Lodging, RVs, Tents1375 acres · Amamoor Creek, QLD
4WD Recommended - dirt/gravel road and two creek crossings (through the creek bed) to get here. We have a whole beautiful valley with crystal clear spring-fed creeks, patches of rain forest and hillsides covered in grass-trees backing onto Wrattens State Forest. There's 1,375 acres of land - the boundaries of our property are the ridges of the mountains that encircle us, and many rare species abound here. This is a dog and horse friendly property but no pets allowed in the cabin. There is paralysis tick in this region - so we'd recommend treating any animal before you come and frequent checks while you're here. No mobile phone coverage at the cabin, but there is a hill you can drive (or walk) up on the property to get phone signal if needed and we have a landline phone in our house which can be used in emergencies.

Hopevale Adventure Camping

6 sites · RVs, Tents113 acres · Widgee, QLD
The Cooke Family welcomes you to “Hopevale”. A beautiful 113 acre property bordered by Wrattens National Park at the edge of the world in the peaceful Widgee district of greater Gympie. Jason, a landscaper by trade, and Jacinta a teacher by profession, met many years ago at a national Christian youth conference. Four beautiful children later and many years down the track, they bought Hopevale as a blank cattle fattening property in 2018. After much hard work, they have made it what it is today, with plans to continually improve. We have different camp options available, one of which is set up for those guests also wanting to stay with horses or just have a larger group booking. Guests will have access to a toilet and shower throughout their stay which is within walking distance from each of the campsites. Campfires and pets are welcome. The property has only had 4 farming owners in its 110 odd years since it was first surveyed and selected in 1915. The Hillcoats, Bishops, Cotters, and now the Cooke’s. The families over the years have used the property for timber getting, dairy, beef and small cropping. The property is geologically rich with volcanic soils, sandstone escarpments full of caves and overhangs. The mighty Wrattens Falls sits to the back of the property in the National Park and is a sight to behold in full flow. It feeds the head waters of the western branch of Widgee Creek which meanders through the property. The subtropical dry rainforest clad mountains are dominated by the majestic Bunya and Hoop pines and are a testament to what once was covering the entire property before being cleared for farming. Remnant riparian creek lines are botanically rich and diverse holding Red and White Cedar, Teak, Silky oak and many other coveted timber trees harvested back in the day. There are many species of animals and birds that call Hopevale home. From water dragons, frogs and fish in the creeks, monitors, wallabies, deer, koalas, possums and phascogales in the eucalypts. Red-back wrens, pardalotes, rainbow bee-eaters, finches and quail call the open grasses home while whip birds give their iconic call in the forest. Above, birds of prey ride the thermals of the valley looking for their next meal. “We have been blessed beyond measure with a small slice of God’s wonderful creation that we would love to share with you.”

Private sites caravan camping near Boreen Point guide

Overview

Roughly 45 minutes north of the Sunshine Coast, Boreen Point sits on the shores of Lake Cootharaba. Pitch the tent or park the motorhome at a caravan park in town that offers convenient amenities, like powered sites, laundry facilities, and camp kitchens. Then visit the natural splendour of Great Sandy National Park, Amamoor State Forest, and Brooyar State Forest, which also offer camping options and outdoor activities for all ages. From swimming to sand dunes, rainforest walks, and rock climbing cliffs, Boreen Point is a thrill-seeker's gateway to adventure.

Where to go

Great Sandy National Park

A 20-minute drive from Boreen Point brings campers to Great Sandy National Park. It’s broken up into two sections. The World Heritage-listed K’gari is in the north (also known as Fraser Island) and the Cooloola Recreation Area is in the south, attached to the mainland. Climb huge sand dunes, visit white silica sand beaches, dive into the crystal clear waters of Lake Mackenzie, or venture into the Noosa Everglades to experience a diverse range of wildlife. Drop the kayak or canoe into the water to discover rustic lakeside bush camping options or get pampered with flush toilets, hot showers, and BBQ facilities at site-designated campgrounds for tents, trailers, and caravans.

Amamoor State Forest

Campers can stretch their legs on the many walking trail options in Amamoor State Forest, roughly 45 minutes from Boreen Point. Walk the Fig Tree Circuit that weaves through macadamia nut trees, capture snapshots of a waterfall, and scoop up yabbies from Amamoor Creek. Swags, travel trailers, and caravans are welcome in on-site campgrounds equipped with fire rings and flush toilets. Keep an eye on the tree canopy while settling in, as it’s a popular spot for birds to perch. Remember to bring wood for campfires, as the forest is off-limits for scavenging.

Brooyar State Forest

Enjoy pet-friendly camping in Brooyar State Forest, roughly an hour from Boreen Point. Campsites here are suitable for small tents to large motorhomes. Amenities like picnic tables, compost toilets, non-potable water, and fire rings offer more convenience. Wake up and take a scenic drive through the woods and make a pit stop at the sandstone cliffs of Point Pure Lookout. Catch views of the hoop pine plantations and eucalyptus forest below. Rock climbers can challenge themselves at Eagles Nest abseiling site, while hikers head to Glastonbury Creek to spot local critters like platypus, turtles, and fish.

When to go

Boreen Point sees slightly more rain than surrounding areas, even in drier months, so bring gumboots to roam around comfortably. Summer sees hotter temperatures as well as stormy skies throughout February. All that moisture produces tons of fresh flowers that decorate the trees in Brooyar State Forest. December is the sunniest month, making it a top choice for outdoor activities like picnicking and hiking. The cooler temperatures and semi-dry skies in June, July, and August are great times for rock climbers to scale cliffs without breaking a sweat.
