Griffins Farm campground

If you’re planning to trek or cycle the 11km Griffins walking track in Morton National Park, aim to stop for the night at peaceful Griffins Farm campground.

Set next to Yarrunga Creek, this walk-in campground is a tranquil place to pitch your tent before you continue your multi-day hike. Grassy, quiet and surrounded by forest, you might even get lucky and have the place to yourself.

After you’ve set up camp, take the time to explore the area. As you look around, you’ll spot remnants of an old house, barn and rock wall fence. These historic relics hark back to when the Griffins family lived here, cutting timber to sell to sawmills between the 1940s and 1970s.

And as evening falls, light a campfire, settle back and enjoy the serenity of this remote location as you gaze up at the stars.
