Campers
Would love to get some advice on a few
places to go camping just out of
Brisbane, we are looking to do a one night or possible two incorporating some of the mountain valleys etc, place for some soft off roaders to get to with a little bit of challenge to keep things interesting. We have a few kids in party as
well, some of us have generators and fridges so don't need powered site etc.
Any advice on some great
places that are scenic and provide some swimming etc would be great, thanks in advance

hell its not like you are short of choice.
Somerset dam....caravan park...boating fishing
several other dams within the circle have
camp sites.
Binaburra, has
camp sites......ya wanted mountains....the road up the front is all bitumen but plenty twisty..depending on the vehicle, how game you are and the road condition at the time....
duck creek road is an interesting drive......most of the time in a proper 4wd its a walk in the park and most soft roaders will get along it with care.....it does get beat up from time to time..for get it in the wet.
There is a whole pile of stuff along the border between
beaudesert & killarny....inc queen mary falls
several 4wd parks..
depending on the vehicle..bribie, sunshine coast beaches.
cheers

You really are spoilt for choice! Start with checking out some of the many reputable published guides like "Camping Guide to Queensland" by Boiling Billy Publications. This one is available from
ExplorOz Shop or any camping
shop. It will give you plenty of
places to start with and give ideas of areas to explore further. Lynne

Gordon Country, out
Warwick way.
Its big and if you are self suficient you can get away from the bulk of the crowds, there is some 4wd'ing available and lots of
camp sites on the creek.
If its wet the main track to the more isolated spots can be fun.
Cheers

We are spoilt for choice living in beautiful Brissie.
A little further out (you said four hours)....
Nindigully....west of
Goondiwindi....really outback camping,
free camping beside the Pub and you MUST try one of the big burgers.....but be warned when I say big I do mean BIG.
Google
Nindigully Pub to see what I mean.
I have done loads and loads of camping / caravanning much closer to
home but just thought I'd suggest that, its the out limits time wise but way way different to anything closer.

Girraween, Sundown (Southern end),
Bald Rock and Boonoo Boonoo National Parks are all spectacular and quite accessible.
