Non caravan camping around Charleville

Hi Barbara,

Have a look at ozcamps - it has information about free camping sites around Australia. Theres one listed at Warrego river Crossing around 40 kms north of Charleville...no facilities.
I haven't stayed there so no idea what it is like.

Cheers,
Heather

Gooday,
Try Ward River, 25KM west of Charleville on the Highway, there is a fairly new section of road there, you go down the old road to the river and can, (or could last September),still cross the bridge and back on to the new section again. Were good camp spots either side of the bridge, good and quiet. Best view of the stars on a dark night of many places we have been.

About 20km east of Charleville there is a large gravel pit (full of water). There is a microwave tower on the left heading for Charleville and the gravel pit is on top of a rise on the left. Plenty of room to get off the road out of sight. It is actually between the road and the railway but there aren't too many trains out that way.

Try Evening Star Tourist Park - never been there myself but it's out of town and should be better than a standard caravan park.

Get yourself Camping Around Australia or Camps 5 (or 6) and you'll find some non-caravan parks.
