Camp 6

Amazing views from the ridge above camp 6

Camp 6 is on a ridge up the escarpment at about 580m elevation with stunning sunset views. It’s an ideal starting point to hike uphill to some impressive overhanging rocks and to the ridge separating our property from the Wet Tropics World Heritage area.
Camp 6 itself offers some great views, but hiking further up the escarpment will reward you with breathtaking panoramic views.

Size: Small secluded camp site situated on a ridge in the escarpment. It has one large (~130sqm) L-shaped area and one smaller area (~30sqm) with almost level or slightly sloping ground for camping.
We have added an extra leveled pad (~50sqm) to this camp site.

Access: 4WD, small Camper Van, Camper Trailer (very good reversing skills required).

Occupancy: This site can be booked for less, but will be charged for a minimum of 3 adults.
Suggested occupancy up to 10 people and 5 vehicles.

Privacy: over 200 meters from the closest internal road and over 1200 meters from the next camp site (both as the crow flies)

Activities: Watching the sunset, Hiking, Bush Walking…..

Camp 6 is in our Low Pricing Category

And here some feedback kindly supplied by previous campers at camp 06:

10/10/24 Antje Very private and a fantastic view over the area.
22/07/24 anonymous The sure was private, quiet, great views and great sunset, sunrise.
14/04/24 Genie Located up high on a hill with lovely sunset views. Peaceful and away from anyone else. A walk to Emerald Creek so bringing mtb would make it an easy ride for a daily swim. Made it along the track with our expedition truck 3.5h with some strategic driving
17/02/24 Michelle privacy, location & tranquillity
07/11/23 Antje & Stefan If you are looking for 100% privacy, this is the place to go. The view is spectacular and thanks to the wind the stay was very pleasant even when the temperature went above 33 degrees.
03/09/23 Jay Campsite 6 was great. If you like privacy while camping, this is a great choice. There is plenty of room for multiple vehicles, trailers, tents and/or swags. There is even a table and one chair beside the firepit. I do recommend taking your own camping chairs though. There are plenty of logs nearby to bring to the pit. I do recommend taking your own wood too, just in case. There are some great views for sunrise and sunset, and the site gets a nice breeze with no mosquitoes. The site is only 1.3km from the Falls but you will need a GPS to plot the course. If you select the walk through the bush, this is not for the faint-hearted, you should be an experienced bushwalker. And what will surprise you the most is that it receives 4G mobile phone reception (this will make sense when you drive in).
25/04/23 Mick Quiet, private, nice view, shady, plenty of room, easy access.
29/09/22 anonymous Campsite 6 up on the hills, amazing sunset and beautiful in morn with hot air balloons in distant
05/07/22 Ben Great views, good privacy.
22/03/22 luke Great privacy and great views
26/07/21 anonymous Nice set up in the mountain. Private and quiet.
13/07/21 Peter Very nice. Enjoyed the view.
13/07/21 Odette We loved the elevated camp site and that you provided a toilet. We stayed for four nights and would of been happy to stay longer, it was private, peaceful and we definitely want to go back again!
08/06/21 Michael Jeff As above
11/11/20 Terence Purkiss Very private, great views, all round loverly!
31/08/20 SARAH Heaven, up on the range, magical views. More shade than anticipated and was an exceptionally hot weekend ( 30-32 being unusual for the time of the year) but it was very comfortable . The sunsets are seriously awesome
31/08/20 Misha Very private site with a beautiful view. Great spot to watch the sun set. We were unfortunately there while it was very windy, and so couldn’t use the fire pit because of the dried grass close by. If the weather was calmer, it would be a very nice spot to relax.
15/08/20 Josephine Clean, quite and awesome view.
28/07/20 simon Very private, with lovely views, beautiful sunsets and good hiking
26/11/19 anonymous Campsite 6 was excellent for views and privacy. Plenty of space too!
19/09/19 Peter Privacy was good, good views, especially nice at sunset, toilet was good, level camp site, not near any water but to compensate good walk up the ridge line. Gives you something to do
19/08/19 Todd It’s elevated so it has lovely views.
26/07/19 Kathi This is a really private camp site…. the view is amazing! It felt really good to be there!
13/07/19 Paula Very private, with access to great views and fabulous walking track
05/06/19 Michael Great views, secluded, could even hear the falls in the distance.
15/01/19 Matt Palka Nicely levelled, close to creek, nice view out over the valley
11/10/18 anonymous Nice view, private, perfectly positioned camp fire site
13/08/18 Caitlin We loved it. Full privacy and a perfect view of the sunset.
Even in winter it was quite hot during the day, so during summer we would definitely look at a site closer to water. However for winter this site was perfect.
24/07/18 Bernadette This is one of the best campsites we have ever stayed at. Well kept, well thought out, amazing views, lots of exploring, lots of relaxing, with a perfect view for stargazing and having sundowners.
20/02/18 Elyse Fitzpatrick Privacy was great. View was amazing- a couple less branches and it would have been spectacular but it wasnt a long climb to the top of the hill for more viewing. Probably the one site that wasnt very shady but again we knew we picked an elevated campground and we had plenty of shade ourselves.
anonymous Michael 5 star because it is what it is. Natural wild high and breezy. Also has the essential toilet and fire pit. Nature at its best. Seclusion on a hill.
