Low Cost Camping in Northern Queensland
Вставка
- Опубліковано 25 сер 2024
- In this episode, we begin our journey up the Northern Queensland coast and quickly discover that free and low-cost camping spots are quite rare! However, we stumble upon some hidden gems that offer fantastic free and affordable camping experiences.
We start at Burpengary East, staying at the Wescloud Lodge Farm Stay, a budget-friendly campsite right on the doorstep of the Sunshine Coast. Our next stop is Tiaro Memorial Park in Tiaro, an excellent free camp for travelers heading north. Our final stop is the Wyper Park Scout Camp, a charming low-cost bush camp near Bundaberg.
Continuing north from Bundaberg, we reach Charter Towers and find several great free camps. Unfortunately, due to the Queensland long weekend, many free campsites are full, and we spend the night in a caravan park. Enjoy! 😊
Great video Sue.
@@leanneriordan8253 thanks Sue. 😀👍
Good video today ok 👌 thank you 🙏
@malcolmrobertsshortsvideoa8335 thanks! 👍🍻
I stayed at the Tiaro pub a week or so ago. It is funny I only saw the pub. 😉
Haha, that checks out. 😉🍻🍻
Thanks, have a nice trip to the top.
@zoezoe610 thanks!! 😀😀
Hey 👋🏼 we were wondering where you were at with planning the caravan 🧐
Haha 😛 Childers!! We stayed in EXACTLY the same spot! Great spot! 👍
We were doing a Chiro/Physio leapfrog up the coast from both of us getting injured along the way & hobbling on walking sticks…. Another fireside story 😊anyway. I digress.
Love the dad jokes 😅 🚂 whoops 😮butter fingers 🤪 you picked the better road into Charters Towers, 💯
Baby bump is developing well ❤
Ciao for now 👌🏼🍻🤙🤗🫶🏻🦆
Haha, yeh mate, the van journey is an interesting one! We are trying to fit a 24' van into 22' foot, and unless we break some fundamental rules of physics, it's proving difficult! 🍻🍻🍻
@@VetinaVan Hollly Molllly!
Best of luck with that one 🤞
🙃🤯 🤔 🛞 😳🫡🫶🏻🦆
We do love a good low cost camp! 🙌🏾Who would’ve thought vanlife is bloody expensive! 😂
It can be very expensive! That being said, it depends on how you travel, now we are moving very slowly and it's quite cheap. It's been 4 weeks at our current spot @15 per night with water, fires and huge open bush space. 👍👍🍻
@@VetinaVan that’s so good! We’re currently at the free camp across from the Bungle Bungles turnoff!🙌🏾
@@GrabLifeByTheGourlays nnniiiccceeee!!! 🍻🍻🍻
Love your thought process balancing beer and food lol. Now I know who to blame for the rain down here but vegie gardens are loving it! 😀
We're 9 days before we head off and I have 4 days left on shift. (Insert happy dance!)
Comet Pub feed looked good will file that spot as we'll be stopping near Comet on rellies cattle property on way through.
Enjoy the trip north. 👍
9 days!! How exciting! To be fair, yes it's been raining a lot up here but after just spending a week down in Melbourne for work, I would take the Queensland rain any day! 👍👍
We've never been to The Cape either and no doubt there's some special naughty list we get put on for that - oh well. We'll be interested to see what you guys make of it since the sort of travel you do is more our 'thing' than the way many others might head to the tip and explore that area. You no doubt already know since you're from here, it's unseasonably cold right now (like, stupidly cold!) so avoid heading south any time soon if you can! No doubt the timing of your trip south will be dictated by a very small person though. Looking forward to seeing the next instalment.
@contributor7219 haha, yup were were on the list too! Let's just say it was a nice calm cape trip. Good to tick it off the list though! Tania is over 37 weeks now it it's game on! 🫄🏼👶
Look at the Zone i am very happy
@mallacey7621 we could not find a Zone dealer around the Sunny Coast, we do know a few people with them who also rate them highly. 👍👍
@@VetinaVan Coolum Beach as where they are made and showroom
I just assumed you would get another lotus. You are basically an ambassador for them and there vans tick all your boxes. Good luck with the choice
@tonykempthorne8178 yup lotus is on the list, but we are keeping all options open. 😉 👍🍻
@@VetinaVan titanium would be another good option. I don’t think zone do a quad bunk they only have 3 fixed designs. Safe travels
@tonykempthorne8178 yup, we have had a look through some Titaniums too, we are lucky we still have a lot of time to research exactly what will work for us. 👍
