Nine more campgrounds in South West national parks and conservation reserves have transitioned to online bookings, providing campers with more certainty and flexibility when planning camping holidays.
Bookings and payment can now be made online up to 180 days in advance for sites at the following Department of Biodiversity, Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) managed campgrounds, for bookings from Tuesday 3 December 2024:
- Big Brook Arboretum – Big Brook State Forest
- Black Point (Seal Cove and Humpback Hollow) – D’Entrecasteaux National Park
- Lake Jasper – D’Entrecasteaux National Park
- Leaning Marri – D’Entrecasteaux National Park
- Grasstree Hollow – Hawke National Park
- Snottygobble Loop – Hawke National Park
- Greens Island – Proposed One Tree Bridge Conservation Area
- Draftys – Warren National Park
- Warren – Warren National Park
DBCA’s Rod Annear said this change provides security and flexibility for campers.
“Earlier this year we moved several campgrounds around the Capes Region to our online Park Stay WA booking system and now we’re continuing this rollout,” Mr Annear said.
“With camping continuing to increase in popularity, online bookings for campgrounds in popular parts of the State give holidaymakers the security of knowing they have accommodation confirmed before they arrive at their destination.
“Many of the campgrounds in this area are popular and can fill up during holiday periods and peak times such as marron season, and the online booking system will help manage this demand.
“It also allows flexibility to change or cancel bookings up to one day before arrival if plans change, freeing up the campsite to be booked by others making more spontaneous plans.”
The nine campgrounds and 119 sites added to DBCA’s Park Stay WA booking system means there are now 85 bookable campgrounds across Western Australian national parks and conservation areas.
