Hey Guys and Gals,
Any ideas for
good camp spots for 24 hour explore of
Carnarvon Gorge in June.
Will have capable 4wd and off road trailer for camping. No facilities required. Any comments or
feedback would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Kelvin Yeats

As Notso said, there is no camping in the park if that was your intention. The caravan park called Takarakka is located just outside the park boundaries and is only a couple of klms to drive back into the park for day trips.
Takarakka is a nice spot to stop for the night and offers a wide variety of camping options. Do a web search and have a look at their site. Nice bushy enviroment.
The Rollenson option is too far to travel in my opinion to make the 24 hour stop over enjoyable.
The Goprge is a beautiful area to explore, you wont regret the time you spend there.
Cheers, Patrick

Takaraka is a nice spot, but the whole
gorge park is way too commercial for me, and what ever happended to
bush camping. I guess it is because of the sheer number of visitors they get.
The sights at
Carnarvon are worth seeing for sure, but I prefer the camping at Salvator Rosa anyday.
