There are two camping areas in Kroombit Tops National Park:

• Griffiths Creek camping area—accessible by conventional vehicle in dry conditions only via Tableland Road from the park's northern entrance. If you are towing a trailer, camper trailer or small caravan a four-wheel-drive vehicle is recommended. Read more about road access.
• Razorback camping area—accessible by high clearance four-wheel-drive and high clearance camper trailers (four-wheel driving experience essential). Read more about road access.

Camping permits are required and fees apply. You must book your camping permit before you arrive. Be aware that you cannot make a camping booking at the camping areas—phone reception is not available.

A tag with your booking number must be displayed at your camp site. Penalties apply for camping without a permit.

Campers must be fully self-sufficient. Griffiths Creek camping area has fire-rings and tank water (not suitable for drinking without treatment). There is a fire-ring at Razorback camping area.

Pack sufficient water, rubbish storage bags or containers, a portable toilet, and clean milled firewood for your visit. Preferably bring a fuel stove.

Note: camping is no longer permitted at The Wall or The Barracks.

Park-specific conditions

• It is illegal to collect wood from the National Park. Campfires are permitted only in fire-rings provided. If there are fire bans you will need to pack a suitable fuel cooking stove—check Park Alerts.
• Take all your rubbish away with you for appropriate disposal. Rubbish bins are not provided in the park.
• Bring a portable toilet to minimise pollution in this area—dispose of toilet waste appropriately. Otherwise, bury all toilet waste (and paper) 15cm deep and at least 100m from waterways, tracks and camp sites.

Camp safely!

Avoid camping near hazardous trees—always look up and around for dead and dying trees and branches before choosing your camp site.

Camping is not recommended during periods of high winds due to increased danger from falling trees and branches.

Use fire-rings provided for campfires. Never leave a campfire unattended. Stay with children and don't let them sit too close. Don't let a campfire turn into a wildfire!—keep campfires small. Put them out with water, not sand or dirt.

Be prepared for cool nights, especially during winter.

Be aware that mobile phone reception is not available in the camping areas.
