Stonehenge Caravan Park

The Stonehenge Caravan Park is a charming and friendly outback haven, offering a peaceful and comfortable base for travellers exploring the unique landscapes and attractions of Central West Queensland. Located in the small, character-filled town of Stonehenge, this well-maintained park is known for its quiet atmosphere and genuine country hospitality. It provides a range of accommodation options, including spacious powered and unpowered sites set on level, grassy ground, perfect for all types of rigs from caravans to tents. The facilities are clean and well-kept, with hot showers, a laundry, and a camp kitchen, ensuring a comfortable stay in a remote outback setting. The park’s location is ideal for discovering what makes Stonehenge special. It’s the perfect starting point for viewing the incredible Stonehenge Address Book, a quirky collection of letterboxes on the town’s grid of streets, and for visiting the impressive stone monument that gives the town its name. The park is a quiet retreat after a day of exploring the vast, rugged beauty of the surrounding Thomson River floodplains, which are a paradise for birdwatchers and photographers. Evenings at the park are a true outback experience, with incredible sunsets followed by a spectacular canopy of stars in the clear, dark sky. For a friendly, quiet, and perfectly located base to soak in the unique character of the outback, the Stonehenge Caravan Park is an excellent choice.
