Camping at Ormiston Gorge

Yep - took our hardfloor CT in there several years back - as I recall the spaces are a bit squeezy and mostly on a mild slope - less than ideal but not to be ruled out it would seem.

Steve,
We could not get our CT in there as we open to the side & the only sites that would have fitted were taken. We spent the night at Glen Helen

Mandrake,
Redbank is quieter, has spaces set up for a camper trailer and is only a little further up the road.

Gday,
As others have said, they are very tight camping spots.
There are other spots ( free camping) around the area if your interested in camping somewhere diferent? Two mile waterhole, up the Finke from Glen Helen is a nice quite spot with plenty of room or Glen Helen if you want toilets and showers ( and a pub!).
Cheers

We squeezed into Ormiston (very sloping site) by getting there early, so we could do the 'pound' walk starting early in the cool. Huge day area car parks, but tiny poor camping.

Next couple of days we enjoyed at the Redbank Ridge Top (pit toilet only). The large circle at the lower level woodlands camp looked nice, but no bays for long rigs like ours, and the ridge top was wonderful. There are only 8 bays up there (bollards as usual at both woodlands and ridge top), but easily long enough for our long rig. A glorious spot.

If you'd like to do a few more k's Palm Valley is much better in my opinion, like all camp spots it pays to arrive earlier rather than later.

Cheers

Hi Steve

I was there 3 weeks ago great spot hot showers gas bbq and lots of dingos at night and if you get there early you will find a spot way better than GlenHelen that place is a dust bowl and Palm Valley is good but grab a shower early as the hot water runs out very fast

Hmmm 2 of us with 20 foot vans were planning to camp at Ormiston in a couple of weeks time. Will need to rethink where we can get these rigs in but really wanted to see the West MacDonell area.
