I need an overall view/opinion as to where people free camp in general. The reason I ask is this; we tend to go off the CAW Bible and websites like 'Caravancaravan' to look for free camps/rest areas. When we go to park up at night, we only use the ones that the books designate as 'overnight stops' but this p...

Folks, not sure if this is in the right section of the forum but does anyone know of any 'free camps' around Esperance? We know about the Le Grand NP camps ($20 pvpn + Park Fees) but we've had to come 100kms out of Esperance to Munglinup Rest Area to overnight. Any 'hidden corners' we can park up of an evenin...

A lot has been made recently of GN's who 'penny pinch' or even pilfer from CP's etc. I'd like to tell my own story which has a slightly different slant on it...... We recently free camped at a small NSW town called Gooloogong. This town has made a HUGE effort to attract RVer's by providing a fantastic camp...

Hi, The passenger seat of our Prado isn't very comfortable and makes my back and legs ache. The drivers seat is better, so I am guessing whoever had the car before was a heavier person and maybe flattened the cushioning of the seat. So my question is... Do you use any extra support on your seat on the long t...

There is an unpleasant odour emanating from the caravan galley sink. I don't know what I could safely use to clean the grey water piping to eliminate this smell. Does anyone have a recommendation for what I could use?

In the Macleay/Clybucca area is to see a new combined rest area with BBQ etc at the Hwy1 & Stuarts Point interchange, according to the plans. The new section will bypass the Clybucca servo/roadhouse/truck stop which is very popular with the truckers & vanners. The continuation to the Macks...
