Camping at Gordon Country
With 4000 acres and over 12km of frontage from the Dalrymple and Banshee creeks, our camp sites offer unrivalled locations to enjoy the Great Dividing Range as your backdrop with walking and 4WD trails at your feet. Gordon Country has a strong commitment to the land and at the heart of our eco-friendly operation is a true love for the environment and a deep desire to see people experience the wonder of nature in a sustainable way with minimal impact on the surrounds. You may site our free-range cattle and donkeys graze throughout the campgrounds.
The uniqueness and size of Gordon Country means that you also get to select a site on arrival and although you can’t book a specific site, part of the experience is exploring and selecting that special spot on arrival.
There are just too many amazing locations to particularise camping areas so get ready to revel in the fun of exploring.
