Camping in Goulburn

23 campgrounds · 1 with powered sites · 1 with a dump point
The Goulburn Valley follows Victoria's longest river, 654 km from the Alps through Seymour, Nagambie and Shepparton to the Murray. It is orchard and dairy country, one of the most intensively farmed parts of Australia, and camping here is mostly riverside towns with a few surprises: an army tank museum, a meteorite park and wartime camp history.

Where is the best place to camp in Goulburn?

Shepparton, about 181 km north of Melbourne, is the main base, and Victoria Lake Holiday Park is right in town. Seymour, about 104 km from Melbourne, is the closest to the city, with Highlands Caravan Park offering power and a dump point. For river camping, Lower Goulburn National Park downstream of Shepparton has more than 80 named riverside camping areas, and Murchison and Tatura have their own town parks.

What is there to do in Goulburn with kids?

In Shepparton, the Shepparton Art Museum and the Museum of Vehicle Evolution at Kialla are close to the parks. In Tatura, the Irrigation and Wartime Camps Museum tells the story of the WWII internment camps held there between 1940 and 1947. Near Seymour, the Army Tank Museum at Puckapunyal has historic vehicles such as Matilda II tanks, and Murchison's Meteorite Park marks the 1969 meteorite fall. The Kyabram Fauna Park is an easy drive from Tatura.

What are the best walks and nature spots in the Goulburn Valley?

Lower Goulburn National Park has canoeing, kayaking and fishing along the river, and Tatura's Cussen Park wetlands are in town. The Great Victorian Rail Trail starts at Tallarook near Seymour, with gentle grades all the way to Mansfield, and near Murchison, the Waranga Basin, completed in 1915, is described as the first major dam built in Australia. In the ranges south of the valley there are waterfalls such as Sugarloaf Falls and the Trawool falls.

Do you need to book campsites in Goulburn?

Check before a riverside trip rather than after: tracks in Lower Goulburn National Park can close when the river floods, so look at Parks Victoria's alerts before you plan a river camp. In January, Tatura hosts International Dairy Week, described as the second-largest dairy show in the Southern Hemisphere.

Are there powered sites in Goulburn?

Yes. One campground here has powered sites confirmed: Highlands Caravan Park. For the rest we are still confirming, so check with the park or holiday park before you book a powered site.

How far is Shepparton from Melbourne?

Shepparton is about 181 km north-north-east of Melbourne. Tatura and Murchison are about 167 km, Seymour about 104 km and Kilmore about 65 km.
