Barcoo River Camp Campground

Last Updated May 2013

Barcoo River Camp has toilets Barcoo River Camp has water available Pets allowed in Barcoo River Camp


On the banks of the Barcoo River, and on the edge of town, this campsite is suitable for caravans

The campground can get very boggy if it is wet due to the black soils, and there is a tar area you can park in if it gets wet. The area is a flood plain so you wouldn't want to be camping there in the rain anyway...

The wool scouring plant in town is well worth a visit and is an excellent demonstration of old working machinery. No OH&S problems in those days I suppose, hate to get caught up in the chain driven wheels.
