For very little cost you can camp in natural surrounding, savouring the unique smells of the Queensland bush. See Australian Animals in their natural setting, boil a billy, get
close to nature, and get away from it all.
Glendon Camping Grounds is located 38Kms west of Warwick on the Cunningham Highway, approximately 2 and a half hours from Brisbane.

Our camp sites are so large, everyone is able to enjoy their privacy. Each site has its own stone fireplace, with BBQ plate, also suitable for camp oven cooking. All campsites

Gold Panning
 |
Gold was first found on Thanes Creek in 1860, and the Thanes Creek Gold Fields joins partly to many other
gold fields in the area. There is a rich and often heart breaking history to be told about those early prospectors who toiled in these isolated
fields, often for most of their lives.
So why not try your hand at panning for gold during your stay. We have all the equipment on hand, and you get to keep whatever you find!! |
