Have you seen inside your dad’s shed lately? Is it absolutely brimming with gear? Does he really need another tackle box or more camping gear? Maybe he does, but for the fathers who seem to have it all, why not make memories this Father’s Day and give him the gift of time spent together - with you as his sidekick?
Our mates at Hipcamp have picked out some top spots that dads across the country will love, great for fishing, relaxing out beside a river, or if your dad is into 4WDing you can find that on Hipcamp too! And if you’re really stuck, let your dad choose his own adventure with a Hipcamp Gift Card.

QUEENSLAND
Blackbutt, QLD
Does a remote 4WD bush camp on a 320 acre property sound like the type of adventure your data would enjoy? Anduramba 4WD & Adventure Bike Stopover is on a 320 acre property south of Blackbutt. Camp on top of a hill with views as far as the eye can see. It's rough and remote with limited facilities, so it's not for everyone. Suits 4WD'ers or adventure bike riders who would rather camp overnight in the bush instead of at a caravan park or pub. Suitable for the dad who loves adventure!
