Has anyone heard of being able to download waypoints for
camping locations for camps Australia 3. We were told that there is a free download available somewhere??

Don't think you will be so lucky, as they wouldn't sell many books if they done that.
But you will find updates to their books on there website which have a small amount of gps info with them.
EG: camps Australia 4 is now out so they will publish all the updates on their site till 5 comes out

Agree with the previous post re not being avail.
I am in the process of placing the GPS coords (believe me its a slow process) all the sites for each state from Camps 3 into an Excel spreadsheet to upload to my Navman. Have done NSW, QLD, WA & NT and yesterday finsihed SA. Tassie & Vic to go (Vics a big one).

I have waypoints and POI's on my web page , they are for Garmin GPS units that are compatible with those .csv and .gpx files, you will need to download the poi uploader .

Hi Yvonne B,
I have done Qld as a waypoint log file that you can load direct into Oxiexplorer or Garmin GPS's. Each waypoint in the Qld file is in the format of 'QLD 245' for example which corresponds to the exact site in the book so as you are driving along and see the waypoints coming up you can ask the missus to look it up in the book.
I have noticed some of the co-ordinates in the book are incorrect as
well (about 5 out of the 60 odd sites that I have visited).
Will slowly do the other states as I have time. Let me know if you are interested and I will post it on the
forum (if it is alright to do so).
Regards
David
