Full Range Camping Shares How People Can Go Camping For Free In Australia

Eumundi, Queensland based Full Range Camping is reaching out to the community to share tips, tricks and general information that can help people go camping for free. The company hopes that this insight will help more lovers of the outdoors get outside more often.

Free Camping is one of the most popular activities in Australia, attracting thousands of local nature enthusiasts, backpackers and eager tourists. While there are thousands of free camps throughout the country, one of the most common problems that newcomers experience when trying to get into this fun activity is difficulty finding these locations. Being familiar with this struggle and wanting to help people across the country get started, Full Range Camping is sharing information on how the best locations can be found.

Glen Wilson, a representative of Full Range Camping states, "As Australians, we are extremely lucky in that we have six states and two territories that maintain their State's National Parks. All throughout these parks are numerous Free Camps that can make for a beautiful escape. These parks are maintained by their respective states' National Parks Rangers, who are tasked with the maintenance and general upkeep of the free camps and paid campgrounds. When it comes to choosing one of these sites, there are several factors that you need to consider. While we can't give you a single, definite answer, we'll certainly help you decide which ones suit you the most."

Wilson explains that, when it comes to free camping Australia has some of the most beautiful destinations in the world. This means, however, that many locations are likely to have campers at any given time. Popular locations attract more visitors, and with this, the cost of maintenance and upkeep goes up as well. The most popular locations often have a stay-in fee, which means that those looking for a truly free experience should stay away from popular sites and visit other, lesser-known locations.

For those who do not mind paying a small fee to spend the night in these popular locations, the company states that there are several options to choose from. Caravan parks or the paid campgrounds provided by the respective state's national parks are some of the most popular, with prices varying from $5/night to $40/night, depending on the location and whether the campers want powered or unpowered sites. Other private campgrounds all over Australia are extremely cost-effective as well, including showgrounds, pubs and clubs that charge a small fee, making the range of paid camping options quite plentiful in nature.

Aside from these few paid camping locations, the company states that free campgrounds are also a viable option for those looking to travel around Australia. Wilson states, "These locations are a bit more remote than the previous ones, though they are just as beautiful and relaxing. Keep in mind that you must have access to a tool or resource whereby you can accurately find those locations but, more importantly, find any rules and regulations that each site might have in place so you do not incur a hefty fine. If you keep this in mind, however, there should not be any problem with you staying in these locations, many if not all of which will deliver exceptionally in providing the wilderness adventure that you desire."

Having chosen the best option for free camping in Australia, the company states that the next step is to choose a specific location, though this is easier said than done. Over the past six years, Full Range Camping has collated over 10,000 locations, placing them in a free and open web-based directory as well as a free, downloadable iOS and Android App. They invite any nature enthusiast in Australia to access this information through the web directory or app (where visitors simply need to create a free account to login and access the search function). Other categories and options for free camping are available, including Showgrounds, Pubs, Private Campgrounds, Rest Areas, Caravan Parks, House Sitting, Help Outs and Camping related businesses.
