Description

Camping is available however there are no facilities. Camping fees apply for all overnight stays within Karara Rangeland Park. They can be paid online at Park Stay WA, or by contacting the Parks and Wildlife Service in Geraldton on 9964 0901. One booking is valid for all camping areas in the park. Camp at any camping area for any night of your booking. Moving between camping areas is permitted. Although campfires are permitted in Karara Rangeland Park, many negative impacts can be avoided by using fuel stoves instead. If having campfires, please bring your own firewood, keep fires small and use fireplaces where provided. Collecting firewood removes essential habitats used by a host of native flora and fauna, including endangered species. Insects, reptiles and other small animals lose their homes when wood is removed. Animals are displaced, nutrient recycling is disrupted and the balance of ecosystems is disturbed. Generators are permitted between 8am and 9pm. This site has 2WD access. Roads in the park are unsealed. Maximum stay in any park: 14 nights if any night is during Western Australia public school holidays, 28 nights at any other time. Pets are not permitted.
