Creek and River Crossings
These crossings can be extremely dangerous even in low water levels and should never be attempted in times of
even mild flooding. Towing a camper or caravan greatly elevates the risk in this situation and should never be
attempted unless you are completely assured it is safe to do so. If there is any doubt about access in flood prone
areas, you should contact the local authorities to find out conditions and dangers before you proceed.
Protecting the environment
Remote areas and National Parks are sensitive areas, and all precautions should be taken not to damage tracks,
interfere with flora and fauna and not to contaminate the area. In sensitive areas it is advisable to use grey water
tanks and contained toilets. If your camper or caravan isn’t fitted with such, both toilets and grey water tanks are
available as portable self-contained units. Always store food, food scraps and rubbish in secure containers, native
animals can be quite resourceful in scavenging for scraps. Dingos have been known to open locked eskies to get
to food so don’t chance it, always secure these items when travelling.
Trip Planning
* When planning remote trips always consider where you will resupply for fuel, food and water. Some remote fuel
stations may run out of fuel during busy periods or times when large fuel trucks are unable to access the area
due to road conditions and closures or simply close outside of the season. Always check conditions and
availability of fuel before setting out to remote areas.
Shire Councils
There are many resources available for planning your trip away. Every state has a tourism website as so regional
councils which will give you extensive information on camping sites, things to do and see, events happening in
the area and contact information for booking sites or activities.
National Parks
Each state’s national parks organisation have a website to assist in finding campsites and provide specific
information about each park’s unique qualities. As a planning resource these are extremely good. All contact
information will be available.
Wikicamps
This smartphone app is an excellent resource for finding all kinds of camping across Australia. If you are looking
for free camping you won’t find a better resource. There is an app add on that even assists in finding fuel stops
with user updates on fuel prices.
These days there are numerous Facebook groups dedicated to travelling with campers and caravans and also
groups dedicated to travel in specific areas. The area specific groups have many locals as members and are a
great way to find out local track closures, conditions, and research the area in general.
