Come and camp on our sustainable yabbie farm! A 500-acre property that sits on an aquifer with unlimited fresh water. We have seven plus sites available for self-contained campers. You will need to be self-sufficient and leave no trace. You can pick your own spot and there is plenty of space - so you can be as secluded as you wish! All flat area We offer a yabbie catching experience, contact us first for availability, $30 per person. There are lots of bird species and wildlife here, as well as sheep roaming around. You are welcome to enjoy a controlled campfire, and there is free firewood available. Fresh water available. The property is located 12kms from the township of Wilmington, a sleepy country town boasting panoramic views (both Hancock's Lookout and Horrocks Pass) and some impressive walking trails through the Flinders Ranges in the area. In Wilmington, you will find a pub, a general store, coffeeshop and a variety of museums and a dumping spot. We, your hosts, Anjo and Rob, live pretty much self-sufficient here - with solar power, water, vegetables, fruit, eggs, chicken meat, sheep meat, yabbies and marron. Everything is recycled, and nothing goes to waste - what we and the chickens and the sheep don’t eat will go to the compost/worm farm. The compost is reused in the veggie garden, excess eggs are boiled and fed to the yabbies and chooks, excess veggies will go to chooks, ducks and sheep. We grow carrots to feed to the yabbies. It’s a great lifestyle and we love it! Our farm is a great homebase to explore the Flinders. Explore the views and walks around Mount Remarkable, Mount Maria and Mount Brown, as well as the amazing sunrises and sunsets and starry night sky. There is an abundance of nearby hiking and biking opportunities including Alligator Gorge. Seasonal farm produce available on request. Options available for longer stays. If you would like to have a hands-on experience on a sustainable farm you could stay for free for 2 weeks (we can be flexible) in return for some caretaking while we visit our grandkids on Kangaroo Island. Jobs would be feeding animals, collect eggs and water vegetables. Contact us if you are interested in caretaking. Hope to meet you all.Come and camp on our sustainable yabbie farm!

Yabbie Farm Bush Camp

We had the most beautiful stay here at the Yabbie Farm. The sunsets and sunrises are just amazing & my kids absolutely loved the invitation to help out with the ducks and the chickens 🩷🧡 Thank you so much for having us 😁

We will be back!

This is a lovely place to camp off grid but there is nice clean water available at each campsite. It is a little exposed but that is its only downside. The campsites are far apart from each other, so it feels like it's just you, the land and the open skies. The hosts are lovely and firewood is available. Yes we will be back!

Yabbie Farm Bush Camp

A terrific hideaway

A wonderful hideaway in a remote area close to Wilmington, Alligator Gorge, and in easy reach of Port Augusta and Quorn. A terrific location to start your adventure in the South Flinders Ranges. Weather was a bit chilly but there are campfires and plenty of wood on the property.

Had a great few days at Yabbie Bush Camp - we parked our vans at the far end closest to the tree lines to watch the birds. Secluded and quiet. Incredible sunsets and clear skies for stargazing. A great base for hiking Alligator Gorge
