Where Queensland camps

From the white sands of the world's largest sand island to misty mountain rainforest and remote outback tracks, Queensland packs an extraordinary range of camping into one state. Here are the regions we cover.

Islands & Sand

K'gari (Fraser Island), Moreton Island and the Southern Great Barrier Reef cays — beach camping at its best.

Hinterland & Ranges

The Bunya Mountains, Gold Coast and Sunshine Coast hinterland — rainforest walks and cool mountain nights.

Tropical North

Cairns, the Daintree, the Atherton Tablelands and the wild charm of Cape York for the well-prepared.

Outback & Free Camps

Long inland drives, low-cost and free camp areas, and the big-sky stargazing the outback is made for.

Know before you go

Camp smart, leave no trace.

Most of Queensland's national park and forest camping requires a permit booked and paid for before you arrive. Always check fire restrictions, tide times for beach driving, and pack out everything you bring in.
