Camping
Camp somewhere different
Pack your tent or stock up the caravan and head North of the Murray for a camping experience you’ll never forget. Make family memories full of fun adventures or just kick back and relax, surrounded by the pristine beauty of the Australian bush.
With free camping, RV-friendly facilities and cosy riverside caravan parks and campgrounds, this is A-grade camping in the heart of food and wine country.
Free camping
If you’re a camping purist, you’ll love pitching a tent at one of the free Parks NSW Murray Valley Regional Park sites. These sites are dog-friendly, but you do need to book ahead, (booking fee of $6 applies).
- Howlong - Quat Quatta East,
- Corowa - Corowa Precinct, Collendina Campground,
- Mulwala - Mulwala Campground,
Each site has its own charms: from riverside serenity to the heart of bushwalking territory, you’ll find what you need here. Forage for firewood, boil the billy, and marvel at the evening sounds of native birds and animals preparing for the starry night ahead.
Just 3km from Mulwala is a stretch of the Lake Mulwala shore popular with campers. Kyffins Reserve might just be the ultimate free camp area. Boat access, amazing views of the lake, and a flat camp area suitable for all types of camping (RVs, caravans, tents and swags) are on offer here. Perhaps best of all, the location hosts spectacular sunsets across the lake.

There are RV bays, barbecues and dump points in town, along with a simple, friendly pub and some historical displays.
