Discover Hipcamp – Australia’s Hidden Camping Gems
If you’re looking to ditch the crowded caravan parks and wake up somewhere wild, peaceful, and off-grid – Hipcamp might just become your new favourite travel companion.
So, what is Hipcamp?
Hipcamp is like Airbnb… but for camping. It’s a platform that connects campers and caravanners with private landowners across Australia who open up their properties for overnight stays. From rolling farmland to secluded bush blocks, wineries, olive groves, and beachfront paddocks – Hipcamp has it all. Whether you’re in a tent, swag, camper, or caravan, there’s a unique spot waiting for you.
With over 10,000 private camping spots listed across the country, Hipcamp gives travellers access to places you’d never otherwise find. Many properties are off the beaten track, which means more nature, less noise – and some seriously unforgettable views.

Why caravanners are loving Hipcamp
No crowded van parks – enjoy wide-open spaces and real peace and quiet.
Affordable stays – many sites are cheaper than commercial parks.
Connect with locals – often, the landowners are on-site and love to share their stories and tips.
Pet-friendly options – perfect if you’re travelling with furry friends.
Filter by access – many listings let you know if 2WD or large vans are suitable.
Be prepared before you roll in
Most Hipcamp sites are self-contained stays, which means you’ll need to bring your own water, power, and toilet/shower setups. This is where Adventurefy comes in. If you’re planning an off-grid getaway, make sure you’re stocked with:
Solar panels or generators
Portable toilets and showers
Water tanks and grey water systems
Outdoor cooking gear
Fire pits, lighting, and camp furniture
💡 You can find all of this gear at Adventurefy – our go-to for off-grid caravan essentials.
