Gilgandra Caravan Park

Gilgandra Caravan Park sits right on the Newell Highway, making it a convenient stop if you’re passing through or exploring the region. It’s a straightforward spot with powered and unpowered sites, plus cabins if you’re not keen on pitching a tent. The amenities are basic but clean enough – there’s a camp kitchen, toilets, and hot showers, which is about what you’d expect for a small country park.

The park can get a bit dusty during dry spells and flies are around in warmer months, so bring some repellent. It’s not a flashy spot, but if you want a no-frills place to park your van or stretch your legs overnight, it does the job. There’s a small playground for kids and a bit of grass for the dog to sniff around.
