Burbie Camp is the best of both worlds: isolated, and yet accessible. The carpark in this part of the Warrumbungle National Park is 2WD-friendly in all seasons. The site itself is walk-in only, though it s just three kilometres along the Burbie Canyon Track, a gentle hike that makes this site a possibility for those who wouldn t normally tackle such an adventure.
What you ll find at the site is a rustic campground with very few facilities, save for a tap running untreated spring water and a spot for a wood-fired barbecue. That s the attraction though. This is where you tap out from the modern world and instead look for wallabies on the ground, wedge-tailed eagles in the sky, and sleep under a truly awesome blanket of stars at night.
