The Araluen campground is a perfect base to explore the beautiful valley and the surrounding region. Nestled under the shade of casuarina trees at the foot of a mountain, try your hand panning for gold in the creek and enjoy the large open area. This camping area has all basic necessities for a free overnight stay and is even pet-friendly. The campground was upgraded in 2022 with a new water tank and a solar pump, an amenities block with solar lighting, a new solar barbeque and new picnic tables. No pre-bookings required.
