Three small walkers camps are provided exclusively for walkers on the Scenic Rim Trail. You can stay at each camping area for a maximum of 1 night only. To help minimise impact and ensure a remote walking experience, a maximum group size of 4 persons applies.
- Camping permits are required and fees apply.
- A tag with your booking number must be displayed at your cam site
- Book your camp sites online or see camping bookings for other options.
Camping bookings are not for the individual camping areas, but for the Scenic Rim Trail as a whole. This means that when you book to camp on the Scenic Rim Trail you automatically book all 3 camping areas, in consecutive order from north to south, for 1 night each. Each day you must move on to the next walkers camp.
Purchase camping permits well in advance to avoid disappointment. If you change your plans and are no longer hiking the trail, please ensure you cancel bookings. Information on cancellations assists in emergencies such as bad weather and wildfires, and allows other hikers the opportunity to experience the trail. Please ensure you supply relevant contact details when you book.
Commercial users and larger organised groups will need to obtain either an organised event or commercial activity permit.
