Falcon Ridge is 208 acres of rural paradise on the way to Orford or into the township of Sorell (which is 15 minutes away). The property slopes up from the road to a large ridge line, on the right days, you will see Peregrine falcons or wedge-tailed eagles using the uplift to effortlessly soar over our property. We also have multiple echidnas that share our property, along with a family of shy wombats (that you might be lucky enough to see at dawn and dusk). There are sweeping views to the North and East. The campsite (which you will have all to yourself) has options for all vehicle types, although some minor levelling may be required in parts for vans/campers. You're welcome to bring your dog along too! We can only accept self-contained campers, so you'll need to have your own camp toilet. There is a dump point located in Sorell (15 mins away). A fire pit has been made for your use. There is an abundance of sticks on the ground for you to collect and burn (subject to fire restrictions), I have also created a small firewood store for your use on wet days for a small fee if required. Settle in, and experience the resident wildlife during the day or the stars at night.Setup your tent/van at our campsite, there is a fire pit for your use and plenty of timber for you to collect on-site. Once you are setup, please feel free to explore the multiple trails on our property and take your dog for a swim in one of our dams! You will get Telstra reception everywhere on the block, but intermittent connection from Optus and other providers. If you are bringing your dog along, please be aware that there are wallabies on the property, so you may want to keep them on lead unless you are confident of their recall. Additionally, our neighbours run sheep on their properties, so please don't venture near the property boundaries if your dog is off-lead. We welcome dogs onto our property, but their actions will be your responsibility, including picking up their poo!

Beautiful quiet property to camp on! Absolutely loved spending a peaceful weekend out of the city at this spot, and so did the dogs! Will definitely be back 😊

Fabulous Falcon Ridge
Great location! Very private and peaceful. A great place for listening to the sounds of nature - lots of birds! Can still hear the sounds of the highway periodically and sometimes a plane but it didn't detract from the peaceful environment. Thanks for sharing your property and allowing others to experience the amazing view from the top of the Ridge!

Great spot
Top notch spot. Very quiet. Plenty of fallen wood around for a fire. Nice big clearing yet surrounded by trees. Nice view over the midlands from the right of the camp. Found a flat with the caravan easily. Instructions were clear. Will be back. Cheers

Such a magnificent spot, perched up on the hill overlooking the farm land of Runnymede.
