Why Not Bus
Share
From rugged outback trails to stunning coastal escapes, we take you off the beaten path in comfort and style. We are not your typical tour bus; owned and operated by a couple of Aussie backpackers in their 20’s, we travel at a relaxed pace with a rough itinerary and include daily activities such as hikes, waterfall and beach visits (optional extras on most other bus services). Best of all we choos
Day 5: Wooramel River Retreat.
This is one of our favourite camping spots on the whole trip, and a lot of people don’t know about it!
It’s a working station that’s been here since the 1800s. 350,000 acres of cattle and goats country, right on the edge of Shark Bay! 🐑
We camp along the Wooramel River, which only flows a few times a year after inland rain.
It’s red dirt, majestic gum trees lined throughout the station, and camps spread out under festoon lights that switch on as the sun drops.
People are in the artesian baths, a few are already around the fire, and others are just sitting back watching the sky change.
There’s horses off to the side, bits of old station gear scattered around from years of use, and once it gets dark the stars properly come out. There is no light pollution out here!! ✨
It’s simple, but it’s a good kind of simple.
Why we rate it:
⭐️ naturally heated artesian bore baths
⭐️ campfires along the riverbed
⭐️ string lights through the station at night
⭐️ clear night skies with no light pollution
⭐️ old station junkyard with pieces from generations
⭐️ enough facilities to be comfortable
By the time you leave this place, it usually ends up being one of the highlights.
