Tips for snagging a campsite

  • Book online in advance to secure your spot in this sought-after natural retreat.
  • Plan your visit outside of peak seasons for a better chance at available campsites.
  • Keep an eye on park alerts for last-minute availability due to cancellations.
  • Explore nearby camping options to maximise your chances of an unforgettable stay.

When to go

The best time to visit Expedition National Park is during the cooler months from April to September, when the weather is mild and conducive for hiking and camping. Summer can be extremely hot, and heavy rains from November to March may make roads impassable.

Know before you go

  • Be prepared for a self-sufficient visit; facilities are limited throughout the park.
  • Stay safe by keeping a distance from cliff edges and supervise children closely.
  • Check road conditions before your trip, especially during wet weather.
  • Bring at least 7 litres of water per person per day as drinking water is not provided.
  • Remember, domestic animals are not permitted within the park boundaries.
