Information

This overnight walkers camp in the Lower Glenelg National Park is set amongst eucalypts and blackwoods. The campsite offers shared table, seasonal tank water ( treat before drinking), shelter and toilet. A shared fireplace is provided but fuel stoves are preferred.

Walker’s overnight campsites are located every 10-20 kilometres along the Great South West Walk. Fees and bookings are now required for the designated GSWW campsites.

The Great South West Walk can be explored through shorter or overnight hikes, or the more adventurous can tackle the entire 250 kilometre, 12-day circular walk. If you prefer to return to a comfortable bed in the evening, there are many easily accessible, short loop walks from many locations that are part of this trail. Either way, you are destined to experience some of Australia's most beautiful natural scenery and wildlife.

Nature being nature, sometimes conditions can change at short notice. It’s a good idea to check ahead of your visit for any updates.
