A 5km drive up a mountain is required to reach the campground and there are Fireflies and Platypus to be seen if you take a short walk.

#5 Diggings
3 RatingsThis remote campground in Crediton State Forest offers a perfect spot for secluded camping. Drop toilets are clean and stone fire pits mark out each camp site. Swimming holes in the creek are crystal clear and the cool mountain air is refreshing. A 25 minute drive to Eungella provides supplies or meals. Fuel up back down the range at Finch Hatton. Day trips to Finch Hatton Gorge are remarkable. Take the ‘Diggings Road’ turn off 5 minutes out of Eungella, not the Google Map way. A memorable camping experience!

#2 Eungella Dam
7 RatingsThis campsite is a great spot for swimming and fishing, with a boat ramp for boats nearby. Fires are allowed and pets are welcome. The area is spread out, with plenty of room and lovely views of the dam. Toilets and a dump area are well maintained, and there is a security guard who goes around to ensure everything is okay. There is no drinking water, but it's only $8 per couple, $5 per child and $15 per family, making it excellent value for money. Wildlife is around, so make sure to keep food and rubbish away at night. No phone signals, but it's a beautiful spot and highly recommended.

#1 Platypus Bush Camp
12 RatingsA hidden gem in the rainforest, Platypus Bush Camp offers something for everyone. Enjoy crystal clear creeks for swimming and spotting platypuses, beautiful walking trails, BBQ areas, and even cabins, caravans, and camper trailers for those who want to stay the night. Wazza, the owner, is a character and his passion for this paradise is clear. Reviews are conflicting, but those who take the punt are rewarded with a unique bush experience. Rocky the cockatoo is a funny addition. Great for a getaway, especially for families.
