    Juliet and Grant have been custodians since 2003, in that time we've built a house, raised a family and now that Alex and Hayley are both at University, life has become a little quieter, (not so sure if we like the quiet though!) Now we've only just started with Hipcamp, we do have a lot to discover, happy to listen and learn. We do offer plenty of space and you will not be crowded out as we keep numbers very limited. No facilities, no toilets, showers, electricity, rubbish bins etc. We do ask that you respect this as you must be fully self contained. We do not consider, a bucket with a lid, to be self contained ok!

    The best camping near Mowbray National Park guide

    Overview

    About

    Embark on an adventure through the scenic landscapes of Mowbray National Park. Traverse the historic Bump Track, witness the grandeur of Black Mountain, and explore the lush rainforest teeming with unique wildlife. While camping isn't available within the park, nearby Speewah Conservation Park offers a cosy spot to rest amidst the natural splendour.

    When to go

    The ideal time to visit Mowbray National Park is during the cooler, drier months from May to September. Enjoy pleasant warmth with reduced humidity and average maximum temperatures of 26°C. The wet season, from December to April, brings heavy rains and potential park closures, making it less suitable for visits.

    Know before you go

    • Check park alerts for temporary closures due to weather or maintenance before planning your visit.
    • Be prepared for the tropical climate; carry water, wear a hat, and apply sunscreen.
    • Drive cautiously on Black Mountain Road, especially after rain when conditions can be slippery.
    • Respect the wildlife; cassowaries are present and can be dangerous.
    • Remember, domestic animals are not permitted in the park, ensuring the protection of local fauna.
