Hectic Valley Farm is located at Mutchilba on 100 acres within the beautiful Atherton Tablelands, North Queensland. Spacious campsites are beside or near a massive dam that attracts a great variety of bird life and the amazing sunsets are different each day. 🌅 Three spacious spots are available a few short meters from the edge of a large dam (sites can be seen from the farm road) with another completely secluded site amongst the bushland. Bird watchers dream with the constant residents and seasonal birds flying in for the dam. Swim, kayak, catch and release fish, throw in a RedClaw pot or hunt for mussel clams. Do some hiking or 4 wheel driving around the hundred acres with our 4 wheel driving tracks. Farm Animal Feeding is available (Extra Booking) where campers can chat with the menagerie of animals we have on the farm such as Clydesdale horses, camels, sheep, cows, chickens, buffalo, peafowl, ducks and friendly geese. We are 10mins from Dimbulah or 20mins to Mareeba with their many attractions. We can tell you all about the many attractions and activities this area has to offer. Please Note: Cattle Creek and Waterfront Campsites are accessible by 2WD. The other campsites are 4WD access only and with off road campers/caravans only. These are self contained sites so please take your own shower and toilet facilities and take away all waste. Well behaved dogs are allowed but must be supervised at all times for the protection of the sheep, poultry, wildlife and not to be brought to the house yard. Sorry no motorbikes or ATV’s. We have a wet season (December to March) and dry season (September to December) choose your ideal times to stay. For more info on us visit our website. www.hecticvalleyfarm.com.au

Lots of animals to feed and see, nice big camping spot. We camped in waterlily I thought it was right by damn between to creeks, but you actually camp behind a small hill. Beautiful sunrises and sunsets.

Such a wonderful camping area. So close to the dam but with plenty of privacy. It was great to see so much wildlife. Very relaxed camping site.

Fantastic spot
A fantastic spot and lovely hosts! We loved the animal feeding, fishing in the dam, mud baths in the dam, fire pits provided, HUGE sites all all private and away from each other. We have a 4wd and semi off road (9.5m long) van and camped at the lillypond, she was a bit scary getting in and out of the little creek crossing but came out pretty well unscathed!

The water front camp was great. There is plenty of room and nice flat ground. The dam was lovely and clean. Very private from other camps. The animal feeding was not something I would recommend as we.were.met my 10 dogs who didn't seem to like us even if they did. The owners were not prepared for us even though we had booked the 9.30 feeding time. As far as the camping goes it was very easy and fun. Definitely recommend for a quick get away and if you are a bird watcher then plenty to see. Take firewood, water craft and a yabbie trap. We only caught one Mouth O mighty and a turtle but my boy enjoyed seeing and releasing. That you Hectic Valley for having us.
