After the runaway success of four editions, Camps Australia Wide has
produced their fifth edition, with more sites, informative symbols and
in full colour. This edition is A4 in size, has 408 pages and has been
revised and updated with over 3,500 sites, that's 400 New sites.
Camps Australia Wide 5 includes the complete Hema Road Atlas, with the
campsites positioned in their exact locations on the maps. As one
person put it "What a bonus. Two books in one – so easy to reference".
This book is not just a guide to camping spots for certain areas, but
encompasses the whole of Australia, showing rest areas, free camps,
station stays, low-cost caravan parks, station stays, national parks,
state forests, state parks and reserves.
Facilities at each site are depicted by symbols, including not only the
standard ones, but those applicable to motorhomes, such as big rigs,
maximum stay allowed, dump points, pets allowed, fees applicable.
Descriptive icons include: close to road; pleasant outlook or vista;
mobile phone coverage; dry weather access and author recommended sites.
There are more sites with GPS co-ordinates, and site access details
have been expanded.
Included in this edition is a list of over 600 dump point locations
with addresses and contact phone numbers, as well as symbols to show
suitability for cassettes, holding tanks, use for non-guests (and
whether a fee is applicable), together with access suitability for big
rigs.
The guide represents great value for money, especially when the cost of
the book can be recouped after only a few nights camping out.
Being able to plan a trip with stopovers that are free or low cost,
knowing if a pet is welcome and seeing at a glance what facilities are
available, has proven to be a hit with travellers across Australia. It
is easy to see why it is now clearly regarded as ‘the traveller’s bible’
All in all, an easy to use and comprehensive guide to rest areas and
camp spots throughout Australia, a definite ‘must have’ for all
travellers.
