Camping & campsites in NSW
Camping is a time to reconnect
Camping isn't just about pitching a tent in the wilderness—it's a liberating adventure that brings you closer to nature and offers a refreshing break from the daily grind.
Imagine the joy of immersing yourself in the great outdoors, breathing in the crisp, fresh air, and marvelling at the stunning beauty all around you. It's a wonderful chance to disconnect from technology, reconnect with loved ones, and create unforgettable memories around a glowing campfire beneath a sky full of stars.
Camp your way across NSW
Whether you enjoy the comfort of a powered site, the convenience of a fully equipped van on a bushcamping site with a view to envy, or the simplicity of an unpowered campsite where you stroll to the camp kitchen for a morning coffee—the choice is entirely yours!
Camping in comfort
Camping comes in all shapes and sizes, making it easy to find something that suits everyone's taste.
If you love getting up close with nature, tent camping is a classic choice. For those who prefer a bit more comfort, campervans and motorhomes offer a perfect mix of outdoor adventure and modern conveniences. Caravans, on the other hand, are great if you enjoy staying in one place with a cozy, homey feel.
Whether you're pitching a tent under the stars, hitting the road in a motorhome, or settling into a caravan, there's a camping style out there to match your idea of a perfect outdoor getaway.
Camping in a tent is perhaps the most classic and iconic form of camping. It involves pitching a tent at a campsite, typically using poles and stakes, and sleeping inside. Tents come in various sizes and designs, from lightweight backpacking tents to spacious family-sized models. Tent camping offers a close connection to nature, allowing campers to immerse themselves fully in the outdoor experience.
Caravan camping involves traveling with a towable caravan, which serves as a portable accommodation unit. Caravans come in a range of sizes and configurations, from compact models suitable for couples to larger, more luxurious options with all the comforts of home. Caravan camping provides the convenience of having a dedicated sleeping space and cooking facilities, making it popular among families and those who prefer a bit more comfort while on the road.
Motorhome camping, also known as RV (recreational vehicle) camping, involves traveling in a self-contained motorized vehicle equipped with living quarters. Motorhomes come in various classes, including Class A, B, and C, each offering different levels of size, amenities, and luxury. Motorhome camping provides the ultimate flexibility, allowing campers to travel to remote destinations while enjoying the comforts of home on wheels, without having to tow a caravan.
Campervans are compact vans that have been converted into basic living quarters, typically featuring a sleeping area, kitchenette, and storage space. Campervan camping is popular among solo travelers, couples, and small families looking for a convenient and affordable way to explore the great outdoors. Campervans offer the freedom to travel at your own pace and easily navigate both urban areas and remote wilderness destinations.
All types of sites to suit all kinds of camping setups
From powered sites with a concrete slab, powered sites on grass, artificial grass camp sites, ensuite campsites as well as grassy unpowered sites and bush camping for a true ‘back to basics experience. Many of our parks offer pet-friendly site sand extra-large areas (perfect if you’re bringing the boat), and campsites are positioned close to amenities and facilities.
With our campsites generally located in picturesque, shady and well-maintained gardens, you’re also likely to enjoy some of the best views in town: of nearby waterways, beaches, parks or mountain vistas.
Grass sites are typically natural, level areas covered with grass where campers can pitch their tents or bring their vans. Providing a softer surface for sleeping compared to other types of sites, grass sites are the site of choice for tents. Conditions can vary seasonally.
Slab sites, in single or double size, feature a concrete pad where campers can park their vehicles or set up their camping equipment. These sites are often found in caravan parks and are designed to provide a level surface for camping. Slab sites are popular among campers with caravans, motorhomes, or campervans, as they offer stability and convenience.
Astroturf sites are campsites covered with artificial turf or synthetic grass. Imagine less mess being walked into your tent or caravan and a permanently beautiful green campsite.

17 of our parks feature extra large (XL) campsites.
These sites are perfect for a more spacious holiday with a large motorhome or caravan, or if you are bringing a boat, kayaks or other larger water sports equipment.
