Nomadic camping

Best for self-contained campers. There are no toilets, showers, or potable water at this Hipcamp.

The private, 3 acre single booking, off grid camping area is located on a large property, surrounded by private bushland and farm land. It is a working cattle property. The nearest residence is 1 km away as the crow flies. You will be completely alone with the stars the moon and the sky. You will have access to walk most of the cattle property at your leisure. 15 minutes drive from Kingaroy. Please respect fence lines and the cattle. The property is a semi arid grass land surrounded by Ironbark timberlands. You must adhere to fire ratings. We have easy, medium and black diamond camping sites available. One must do a easy before the other aspects of the property are available for camping. The easy campsite (pictured) can accept tents all season and camper trailers, RV's when it is in the dry season! The entry level campsite is called Dragons Lake. It is run by a water dragon that likes to see you and is keen to see you go. The sky's are patrolled by a resident pair of wedge tailed eagles, all the reptiles you imagine in this country appear and are happy to do their own thing. Local activities include Bacon Fest, Car racing, agricultural shows, music and of course peanuts. There are several hikes and mountain bike trails. Book your trip around something exciting, then retreat to solitude. The rules are simple come, clean go clean. You can send through a Queensland certified weed certificate for your vehicle not more than 24 hours old; or have a quick inspection before you arrive, at most you will have to do a 20 dollar car wash. Lantana, Parthenium and fire ants are not something to be taken lightly. Your host wants people to be able to camp like they have but, not at the expense of this special place; that is healthy, vibrant and in control of weed species related to this area and the grazing practices. Every site has access to water, swim in the dam NO SOAP IN THE DAM. The entry level site has access to water approximately 50m from the site and a dam. All other sites have access to dams for swimming and fresh water that is not potable. Bring your own fire pit and toilet, take what you bring, leave no trace. Hiking and mountain bikes only, (highly fragile soils). Limited selection of camping supplies and repair for sale.The site is 3 acres, generally flat with a mowed 1 acre horseshoe for easy pull though (in the dry season tent only in wet periods). Lots of room for sports and games with the kids and it is private for you and only you. You will not see or interact with any other campers. The site is accessed form a main road then 300m of farm track. There is a retired cattle yard with a very healthy dam for swimming. NO SOAP in the Dam. There is access to a spigot approximately 50m from the site. All drinking water should be boiled. There are no facilities, shower or toilet, bring your own shower, fire pit, toilet no open fires, fires must be contained, off the ground and supervised.
