We had a wonderful stay at Erica Caravan Park, located in the quaint township of Erica, known for its timber industry and small-town charm. Its proximity to Walhalla, a beautifully preserved gold rush town with attractions like the gold mine railway, makes it an excellent base for exploring this fascinating region. Walhalla offers much more than its railway, with plenty of history and scenery to discover.
The campground itself is well-equipped, featuring clean showers, toilets, fire pits, a kitchen, and laundry facilities—all impeccably maintained. The camping areas are well-marked, spacious, and peaceful, ensuring a comfortable and quiet stay.
For adventure seekers, there’s no shortage of activities, especially for those with a 4WD or motocross bikes. We particularly enjoyed the 25 km dirt road from Walhalla to the Thomson Dam Wall—an awesome experience. There are plenty of tracks to suit all levels of intensity. Visiting in summer was fantastic, but it sounds like winter offers even more unique fun.
A special mention to Anthony, the host, who was incredibly kind and responsive, ensuring the campground is kept in top-notch condition. And if you’re not in the mood to cook, the Erica Hotel Motel across the road serves delicious meals—you won’t regret stopping by.
