About Winnemia

We are actively trying to restore the environment around Winnemia, and we ask that you help us to achieve that.

When visiting Winnemia please be careful to stay on the designated roads to minimise biosecurity risks and prevent erosion.

We ask all our visitors to abide by our leave no trace principles:

1. Plan your trip ahead and prepare 
2. Travel and camp on durable surfaces
3. Dispose of waste and rubbish properly (no bins are provided at Winnemia)
4. Leave what you find 
5. Minimise impacts (including 4WD and campfires)
6. Respect wildlife and nature
7. Be considerate of your hosts and other visitors

Winnemia Campground is a remote nature-based campsite, and facilities are limited. 

There are two rustic toilets available for guests to use during their stay, however, we strongly encourage visitors to be self-sufficient for the duration of their stay. No electricity or potable water is provided. It is for this reason that booking in advance is essential.

A dump point for waste can be found at the Gascoyne Junction townsite (30km away).

We strongly suggest reading our FAQ section before heading to Winnemia.

Winnemia is the perfect place to sit back and relax on the banks of the Gascoyne River. 

Activities encouraged include:

• Hiking and walking
• Birdwatching
• Photography
• Stargazing and astrotourism
• Swimming (when river is flowing and safe to do so)

We also encourage visitors to explore more of the Upper Gascoyne Region, you can find out more at the Visit Upper Gascoyne website here.
