Located in the Lockyer Valley less than 2 hours from Brisbane, Mt Castle Valleys consists of over 8000 acres of Australian bushland bordering world heritage national park and Gondwana Rainforest. Stay at a beautiful creekside campsite and have access to over 100km of walking trails ranging in difficulty from beginner level to experienced. During the wet season, cool off in the waterfalls and naturally occuring swimming holes located on the property. Have a chance to spot the local wildlife including koalas, brushtail rock wallabies and a huge range of native bird species. Visitors are welcome to bring their own bicycle and cycle on all established tracks. The Valleys campsite is surrounded on all sides with native bushland. Pitch your tent on a grassy field beside the creek and keep an eye out for wildlife, including koalas, wallabies and a huge range of native bird species. Digitally unplug, with no phone coverage at the site, but retain peace of mind with phone coverage available within a 15 minute drive if you need to reconnect with the outside world. On your way here, consider visiting Pioneer Village in Laidley and the local lavender farm. IMPORTANT NOTE: There are no amenities at the campsites and bush toileting or burying waste is strictly prohibited. You must being a camping toilet and toilet waste must be disposed of off site at an appropriate facility.

Wonderful peaceful campung
We really enjoyed our time at this campsite. The views of Mt Castle are amazing. The creek provided a cool area to explore with our children and the site was lovely and grassy, level and spacious. We were the only campers at the time we visited and the site was beautiful and peaceful. Would definitely recommend.

The Valleys - Creekside Field
Stunning and boundless property
What a beautiful spot. I was camped by the riverside (which despite not having rain recently, still had a few pools to splash in) and on a beautiful expansive meadow. Many walking trails and places to explore, you couldn’t get bored here. Didn’t cross a soul for days (except when our car battery died and Lauras lovely dad was able to assist us). Would 100% come back again!

The Valleys - Mountain View
Beautiful quiet camping spot
We had a lovely 2 nights. So quiet and peaceful. Look forward to another visit when there is perhaps a little more water in the creek. Loved the curious cows and calves coming up close to the camp.

The Valleys - Extra
Quiet country getaway.
We loved camping in our caravan at The Valleys site 1. The site was a nice flat area beside Laidley Creek, which was full of beautiful river rocks & stones, but with very little water at the time. It is just a paddock, so you'll need to be self sufficient. Closest little town Mulgowie is about a 15 minutes drive from site. We would highly recommend the pub lunch there. At our campsite there were lots of friendly, inquisitive cows & calves roaming in to say hello, getting very close to us. We did about an hours hike & loved following & crossing the creek & taking in views of the valley & Castle (?) Mountain. We travelled with our daughter who was in her caravan. We had this site to ourselves. It would easily fit 8 caravans. There is another site 2, probably 500 metres further along. There were 3 or 4 vans/tent there, but we did not hear them. This site 2 is right beside creek too, it's quite a lot bigger than site 1. Would love to return with lots of family & friends as this site would easily accommodate 20 caravans. Thank you Laura for your great correspondence leading up to our weekend & very detailed instructions on how to get there. Also the laminated sheets with info on the different walks was much appreciated, as was the emergency kit provided.
