About

Pitch your tent or park your camper trailer at Doon Goonge campground and get back to nature surrounded by the wild terrain of Chaelundi National Park.

Spread across cleared flats in the northern section of Chandlers Creek, the campground is a good place to cast a line, have a bite to eat or choose your own path and explore the nearby Chaelundi Wilderness Area.

You'll need to come well-prepared as this is a remote campground and conditions can change rapidly. However, self-sufficient campers will be rewarded by the solitude you may get lucky and have the place all to yourself.
