Welcome to the wild wild west, nestled into the Byron Hinterland near Whian Whian. Our property stretches across 10 acres. Here you will find beauty of rainforest, strength of bamboo, life of orchard, feel alive walking or riding the mountain bike trails, feel the power of the open fire, find serenity and connection to heart space. Pitch your tipi, tent or swag under the rainforest canopy, or on the grass close to stone fire ring, with complete privacy. We have 10 acres consisting of beautiful rainforest and an orchard. There's access to walking tracks and mountain bike tracks with technical log and rock sections, so if you're a mountain bike enthusiast definitely bring your bike! While you're here check out the waterfalls just 2 kms down the hill, and the Big Scrub loop walking track nearby offers the chance to experience some of the most magnificent subtropical rainforest in NSW. It's part of Nightcap National Park and is popular with birdwatchers. It features crystal clear creeks, lush vegetation and enormous fig trees.​ Enjoy the tranquillity of this treasured land. Relax around the campfire in the evenings as you gaze at the stars above. We welcome self-contained campers who bring their own camping toilet/shower and drinking water. You must have your own amenities. The property is 2WD accessible in good weather as it's very steep and it's a short walk to the campsite area to set up your tent. Well behaved pets are welcome to camp with you.Pitch your tipi, tent or swag under the rainforest canopy, or on the grass close to stone fire ring, with complete privacy.

Quiet spot. I suggest arriving during the day as I had trouble finding the entrance in the dark and was unable to contact the property owner.

Thankyou!
We had a wonderful night staying here, the area is wonderful, the property was really peaceful and well maintained. Steve was super friendly and it was truly a pleasure camping on the property. Heeeeaps of wildlife mainly wallabies around. The waterfall just down the road is breathtaking and a wonderful place for a swim. My only note is the drive down the hill is rather steep and probably not suitable for larger sized vehicles or if it is even slightly wet. Thankyou for having us

Camping among the trees 🏕️
We had a wonderful weekend at this campsite nestled among the trees. There's plenty of space for multiple tents and cars. However, accessing the site can be challenging as it's quite steep. During rainy weather, only 4WD vehicles can navigate the slope. Fortunately, we had sunny weather, so our vans and small cars managed just fine. There are a few flat spots available, though not entirely level. The site is alive with birdlife and occasional wallabies from neighboring properties. Steve, the host, was welcoming and had a campfire ready upon our late arrival. There's also plenty of wood available on the properties for the fire. Additionally, there are some lovely orange and lemon trees on the property where you can pick a few fruits. What sets this site apart is its privacy. There's only one large camping area, ensuring you have it all to yourself. The main house is uphill, keeping it private and serene. Nearby Whian Whian Falls offers a refreshing river dip just a 5-minute drive away.

Batteries are recharged!
The perfect escape! Got caught in wicked traffic coming from Bris so arrived late, Steve kindly had the fire ready and roaring for our arrival. We greatly enjoyed our time soaking up the beautiful energy Whian Whian had to offer from Steve's land. What a magical pocket of the world.
