About

Cattai campground is a great place for a weekend getaway with family or friends and a good place to stop with your campervan on a driving tour.

Once you've picked the perfect campsite and pitched your tent, it's time to start exploring. Kids will love the wide open space that is great for bike riding, playing and running, plus the campground is right near the Hawkesbury River, meaning fishing, canoeing and kayaking opportunities are all nearby. There's also the historic Cattai Homestead, a short walk or drive from campground. It's an important part of Australian history so be sure to check it out.

You'll probably be woken by the call of birds in the morning, and you may see a kangaroo peeking at you through the bushland on a morning walk to the lookout over Hawkesbury River.

We had such a great experience camping at Cattai Campground! The place is surrounded by beautiful nature and wildlife. We saw plenty of kangaroos, crows, lorikeets, and cockatoos during our stay. The facilities were clean and well-maintained, with toilets and hot showers available (a big plus). Electic BBQ is available. Campground is unmarked and unpowered. There are lots of firepits around the campground, perfect for evening fires — we made s’mores under the stars, and it was absolutely perfect. ✨ The park rangers regularly go around to check bookings and make sure everything is in order, which made us feel safe and well looked after. If you enjoy fishing, there’s also a nice spot nearby to cast a line. We camped in late October, and the weather couldn’t have been better — cool nights around 12°C and warm afternoons at 24°C. Couldn’t ask for a more relaxing weekend surrounded by nature. Highly recommend Cattai for families, couples, or anyone looking for a peaceful camping escape!
