WHAT MAKES IT REAL?

WILD AND FREE...

Outback Australia camping - Longreach Queensland


This is a great free camping ground, just outside of Longreach. You can stay here for 4 nights, giving you plenty of time to see the sights of the town.

The camp ground is a large grass area next to the Thomson River, with some good fishing. My husband caught a decent sized yellow belly for our dinner here.

There isn't much shade, but there is plenty of space. Not many rv camping sites, suitable for large vehicles are free, so we were very happy to find this one.
