Comeroo campground

Whether you're chasing red dirt roads or birdwatching from your camp chair, this quiet little campground is a welcome stop on your outback adventure from Queensland's Currawinya National Park to Cuttaburra National Park and onward to Bourke.

With no marked sites at Comeroo campground, you're free to choose your own patch on the grassy woodland beside Cuttaburra Creek. You'll find simple comforts like a shared picnic shelter, gas barbecue and pit toilets. Enjoy the liberation of a rinse under the stars in the open-air, bore-fed artesian showers. There's a shower screen for privacy.

Though Cuttaburra Creek may not always flow, the life around it never stops. Herons and egrets glide with quiet grace while rainbow bee-eaters and wood swallows bring bursts of colour and energy to the creek bed. It's a place to slow down and take in the endless sky and those famous outback sunrises and sunsets.

Take the scenic drive from the campground and wind through the park's changing landscapes. If you have time to linger, combine your trip with a visit to Brindingabba campground, near the New South WalesQueensland border.
