In Ultimate Campsites: Australia 2nd edition, Penny Watson follows up the wildly popular first edition with even more camping spots and experiences to help you immerse yourself in all that Australia's natural world has to offer.

Each state-by-state chapter in Ultimate Campsites: Australia 2nd edition contains detailed maps and the what-when-why-where information about each campground, alongside tips and anecdotes about the surrounding regions. You’ll find special sections dedicated to remote-island campgrounds, as well as sites with great walks and places close by to First Nations cultural experiences. There are also quick and easy lists for camping with pets, free camping, 4WD access and commercial campgrounds, and handy camping trail itineraries for when you want to tick off two or three campgrounds in one trip.

This book is an essential tool for the glovebox, be it in a 2WD or a motorhome. It’s also the kind of book that will get plenty of wear and tear on the coffee table while you’re planning that next big adventure in Australia’s great outdoors.
