Tasmania is still one of the easiest and most unspoiled places to camp or explore in a campervan, motorhome or caravan. About 40 per cent of the Island is protected as national parks and reserves and there are more than 50 caravan parks.
CampingYou can choose from formal or informal camp sites. Formal camp sites are those within national parks and in forest reserves managed by Forestry Tasmania or Hydro Tasmania.
Informal camp sites are marked as such and you need to check on usage requirements at each site.
Caravan/Motorhome/Holiday ParksA caravan or campervan is the perfect way to explore Tasmania. Our compact island has diverse scenery and interesting, uncrowded roads that lend themselves to touring.
Some parks have private en suite facilities for caravan/motorhome travellers, while others include comfortable, cabin-style accommodation.
For more details, see the Go Caravanning and Camping Australia website or pick up a copy of the Caravan and Holiday Park Guide to Tasmania, the official guide to Tasmanian caravan and camping holidays.
Minimal impact camping is the way you can ensure the areas you enjoy remain unspoiled for all who follow you.
