100% of recent Hipcampers say this Hipcamp felt private.

On our property, we offer one private campsite with a large shelter making it ideal for all-weather group camping. While situated on a farm, it is a fenced-off space that can accommodate numerous vans. The Shelter is equipped with a wood heater, BBQ, stove, sink, tables, and some chairs. In addition, it has a basic shower and a toilet. The site has a designated cooking fire and a campfire. The Shelter has solar power providing lighting and charging facilities. All you need for a rustic home away from home! No mobile service or internet at the campsite ensures that you will switch off and relax. The Shelter is not a cabin but an open-air space for use by campers who are self-sufficient with bedding arrangements - swags, tents, camper trailers or vans. The creek running through the property provides great swimming and fishing (a 400m walk/drive from The Shelter), and the surrounding bush environment provides opportunities for walks, 4WD adventures, and wildlife spotting. More about the property... In 2017 we purchased our small farm in the Nariel Valley. It ticked all the boxes including a creek running through it and backing onto bushland. Now the dream has been realised and we are living in our new home, on our farm, with our small herd of Angus cows. We knew Nariel was special but we continue to discover its myriad of offerings for those who love the great outdoors. We look forward to sharing what we have discovered with our visitors. About Nariel: Wildlife abounds here, with wombats, emus, and kangaroos roaming the property and the list is endless for bird-watching enthusiasts. The remote location on a clear night provides a dark star-filled sky with shooting stars a common occurrence for those who are looking. Nariel Creek is a renowned trout fishing destination. The tracks around the Nariel Valley are a popular destination for motorbike and 4WD enthusiasts. Mount Pinnibar Track and Mount Gibbo are both accessed via Nariel. Several high country huts, all re-built since the January 2020 bushfires, are within an hour drive. Nariel was a thriving community during the gold rush, at that time there were 4 schools and a pub in the valley. Historical relics and gold can still be found. Panning in the creek and tributaries can be a rewarding pastime. The Nariel Creek provides a great spot to cool down in summer and is fast-flowing for a fun float through rapids. In spring the Nariel Valley is where you will find some beautiful wildflower sites. Nariel is home to the Nariel Folk Festival held over a week in late December – early January each year. And that is only in Nariel Valley! Corryong is the nearest township (population ~1350) and is 25 minutes away. The Murray River at Towong is 40 minutes away. Kayaking, push bike riding and many other pursuits are all on your doorstep if you can drag yourself away from Nariel.Our private campsite is complete with a large shelter making it ideal for all-weather group camping.

The Shelter

Perfect camp spot

A beautiful location away from the crowds. Paula and Patrick were amazing hosts, greeting us on arrival and showing us how the hot shower set up works. Their property is a great place for exploring the surrounding tracks in to the mountains and the surrounding Upper Murray area. There is so much to see around here. The Shelter provides a great place to hang out when not exploring and the sunrises and sunsets were beautiful. The short walk across the road to the creek was also great. Would definitely recommend staying here to anyone looking for a private camp away from crowds!

Turning 13!!!!

The Shelter had everything and more we could have possibly needed. Paula and her husband were both so lovely, they came to greet us when we arrived - Even though we were late due to numerous reasons. Paula told us about the property and showed us the ins and outs. We had our swags and still were beyond comfortable. Nothing was too much trouble, the kids said numerous times how much they loved where we were staying and would love to go back, they were 8 and 13. I couldn't fault our stay, and we will definitely be back for many more fishing and camping trips to have and memories to be made. Thanks Paula and family for your hospitality and friendly faces and for being so inviting and welcoming to us, It didn't go unnoticed. Thanks heaps, Rach, Kyle and the boys Ollie and Riley.

The Shelter

The Shelter was the best Hipcamp location I have ever stayed at! It was private and secluded and having no phone service was so relaxing. Paula has made sure there is everything anyone would need and even left us a packet of marshmallows on arrival. The site is well fenced and secure for dogs as well as being more than enough space to spread out. Paula met us on arrival and talked us through everything and even checked in halfway through our stay to make sure we had everything we needed and to answer any more questions we had. The onsite toilet was spotless and the shower was insanely good. Having access to both of these made us feel like we were glamping! The incredible scenery, the walking distance to the creek and the location made this site absolutely perfect, it truly is a slice of paradise. We will be telling all our friends about this site and hope to be back soon!

The Shelter

Amazing pet friendly getaway.

I can’t even begin to explain how amazing The Shelter was! The scenery in the area brought a tear to my eye!!! The camp area was perfect for myself and my pooch, Paula has cordoned off a large area with farm fencing (the square wire kind not just the horizontal wire type) it gave me piece of mind that my doggo couldn’t go wandering far without me. Lil (doggo) loved having all the space to explore with lots of new smells and sounds. Paula was so helpful and explained everything on my arrival, the shower system is ingenious, the toilet was super clean and very convenient. Lots of cooking utensils and supplies on site, a great area to relax in in the heat of the day and lots of nature walks and treks to keep you occupied, I’m not a fisher but there were fishing spots everywhere!! Would 100% recommend for anyone with kidlets and doglets that need them to be able to roam around but also kept close while surrounded by the most amazing vistas. Also for the fisher folk out there that any access to crystal clear streams.
