Chittering Acres
16 sites · RVs, Tents700 acres · Chittering, WA
We live on a picturesque 700 acre property, high in the Darling Range an hour north of Perth. The property overlooks Lake Chittering with sweeping views to the horizon.The native bush here is typical of the Darling Ranges, featuring Jarrah, Marri, Wandoo, Xanthorea and Banksia. Fed by the mighty Brockman river, the pretty Chittering Lake is almost completely obscured by vegetation. The lake features lots of birdlife including swans, wood ducks, spoonbills and wedgetail eagles. The Chittering valley has much to offer including scenic walks and local cellar doors. The springtime is full of the region's wildflowers, and if you're visiting around October don't miss A Taste of Chittering, the food and wine festival showcasing local produce. We have a number of campsites on offer for your relaxing holiday.

Jacaranda Hill Farm
16 sites · RVs, Tents108 acres · WA
We are closed from 1 Dec through to 31 March due to High Fire Risk.
Our 43-hectare property is on the edge of the Darling Scarp behind the historical Fairbridge Village. Only 1 hour south of Perth, so it is close enough for a quick weekend getaway but far enough to enjoy the silence of the bush.
There are elevated campsites with views west towards Mandurah and the Peel Estuary, northwest views toward Perth City, and three dams on the property.
Guests must be fully self-contained, as no toilets or showers are available. Just amazing views :)
Some locations are suitable for tents only, and some for caravans only. 4WD/AWDs are recommended as most sites are not easily accessible with a 2WD vehicle, especially during winter.
Dog friendly. Campfires are permitted in designated areas with the host's approval (depending on fire restrictions).

100-Acre Woods
20 sites · RVs, Tents100 acres · Mandurah, WA
We are a hobby farm set on 100-acres on the North Dandalup scarp, with a few sheep. You will find kangaroos, echidnas, sometimes emus visiting our property.
You can enjoy the great views into the horizon towards the Indian Ocean amidst the tall jarrah and gum trees. Campsites are set in the woodlands, some with views.
It’s perfect for people seeking 'quiet' time away, but still near to amenities in the towns around here. You can take walks to experience forest therapy, have a campfire or canoe in the dams during wintertime.
There is no power, water or toilet facilities so campers must be completely self-contained. You are expected to clear up and take all rubbish with you. Leave no trace.
The terrain is rather hilly, hence a few sites are accessible only by 4WD (Sembawang and Changi). There are some sites that are still accessible with regular cars (Opera 1, 2 or 3; Tampines, Bedok). RVs and small caravans are welcomed. All vehicles have to stay on the paths, and not to make any tracks.
The gravel road leading to our property is shared with neighbours who run horses. As such, please drive really slowly here so as not to cause the horses to bolt.
During the summer fire season, fires are strictly prohibited!
Dogs welcome (on leash).

Avonbrook Wheatbelt creekside camp
5 sites · RVs, Tents44 acres · West Toodyay, WA
Unfortunately due to the prolonged dry weather the Toodyay Shire has extended any burning 🔥 until May 14th so sorry but no campfires until after that date, apologies, Sarah
Our family moved to Toodyay 3 years ago after spending 8 years in Kalgoorlie, we dreamt of space to keep animals and raise our children. Avonbrook is ideal with its yearlong Creek and rocky outcrops for our Dexter cattle and Boer goats.
We hope to enjoy for many years to come.
We have 3 campsites at the moment, site A is the smaller of them. There are unfortunately a few ants nests around so please be aware and pitch up anywhere around the site thats best, even on the paddock side if suits... thanks, Sarah
PS the cows can be naughty and like to chew cords so keep the gate shut to resist temptation!
Hope you enjoy your stay on our land.
We appreciate it so much as an exchange of services and an amazing contribution towards raising our family thankyou
Please no camp-fires during shire restricted periods of 1st Oct till 30 Apr thanks

If you accept that you are staying on a working hobby farm / equine property and that I have no control over nature - then welcome, there is much beauty here for those who have the eyes to see - and as a base to explore the Perth area, we have a pretty convenient spot :)

Camping near Perth guide
Overview
Hemmed in by sandy beaches, riverside parks, and wineries, Perth comes with options. Whether using the state capital as a base for wine tasting or bushwalking, hopping over to the neighboring port of Fremantle, or passing through as part of your Western Australia road trip, Perth is on everyone’s itinerary. And campers can have the best of both worlds—dive into the food and culture, then slip away to a secluded bush campsite for a campfire BBQ and a view over the valleys. The added bonus? Year-round sunshine makes camping possible in all seasons.
Swan Valley
The banks of the Swan River curl northeast of Perth into the Swan Valley, where they bloom into leafy hillsides and vines. Less than an hour from Perth CBD, it’s the weekend getaway of choice for city-dwellers, where you can go wine tasting, cruise along the river, or get out for cycling, freshwater fishing, and canoeing. With camping sites and caravan parks throughout the valley, you can also pitch your tent or park your campervan or camper trailer in the vineyards.
Perth Hills and Serpentine
East of Perth, the hills around Mundaring, Kalamunda, and Armadale are prime for campers and bushwalkers. Just an hour south of the city, Wungong Regional Park and Serpentine National Park are great for waterfall swims and hiking through rocky gorges. Choose a waterside camping area with access to natural swimming pools, camp out on a llama farm, or escape from it all at a remote woodland tent site.
Yanchep and the North
State Route 60 runs north to Yanchep National Park, where kookaburras, koalas, and kangaroos hide among bushland trails and wetlands. Further north, follow the classic Western Australian road trip route, stopping at the Lancelin sand dunes and then trekking through the desert of Nambung National Park to see The Pinnacles. Nearby, Jurien Bay has beachfront camping spots, where you can cool off swimming or snorkeling in the Indian Ocean.
When to go
Summer is peak season in Perth, but campers should be prepared for scorching temperatures and the need to book camping grounds well in advance. Road tripping is most magical in spring (September through November), when wildflowers bloom along the coast, and both spring and autumn (March through May) offer ideal weather for camping, as well as the chance for whale watching. Winter temperatures are mild but rainy, so wet weather camping gear is essential.
Know before you go
- Having your own transport is a big plus around Perth, especially if you plan to get out to the vineyards or national parks.
- Fire bans are common in Western Australia during summer and dry periods, so be sure to check local recommendations before lighting your campfire.
- A National Parks pass is required to visit, hike, or camp within Western Australia’s national parks.
