Newnes campground

Caravan, Camping and Holiday Parks

Welcome to Mother Nature’s amphitheatre. Dramatic sandstone cliffs and proud eucalypt trees make for a majestic backdrop at this beautiful, grassy, flat campground by the Wolgan river.

It’s a long, roughly 10km walk to reach this campground from Glen Davis via Pipeline track. Once you arrive, it’s time to relax and cool off with a paddle or lilo in the river.

Pitch your tent and enjoy a picnic under the trees before heading out to explore the tracks, tunnels and ovens of the historic shale oil ruins nearby. There are walks nearby for taking in the dramatic scenery. You can also camp on the other side of the river.
