Last Saturday, we went for an overnight camping at Burra Creek, more than 2 hours drive from Adelaide. Sometimes we are unorganised with our plans, or let say we don't really make plans or itinerary on which places we are going to visit. As long as we know which town to go and campground to stay, that's all that matters.
We like bush camping, especially those campgrounds that has walking and hiking trails, or nearby the sea or river. We like adventures and excitement so we surprise ourselves of whatever places we may come up to visit while doing the roadtrip.
Worlds End campground is huge, it has it's own designated campsite with firepit, the grounds surface were level, some has picnic table. It's shaded with big gumtrees and the camp was surrounded by acres of lands, valleys and mountains.
Since it's not long weekend or school holiday the campground were not busy, only a few campers are present, so we occupied a huge campsite for ourselves that is closer to the toilet. It's very peaceful and relaxing to be disconnected to the outside world, no mobile network and we focus ourselves to have a quality time, play loud music and random jokes to share. The night was our highlight, it was full moon, it looks like a burning sun that night, it's beautiful. If late hubby is with us, he will be our leader on stargazing, he loves it and even we get to count some moving satellites that we sometimes mistaken as the star.
During day time we explore the town, we just use the maps we got on information center. I will share more photos on my next blog.
Here are some photos of the campground:
Our campsite near the toilet
Our accommodation for one night, my sister is sleeping on air mattress while I'll be sleeping on strecher bed.
Part of our campsite, it was very huge
We went for a walk and we pass through this creek
A little bit of hike is not bad, we like to hike up to the top but there's a fence, with private property, and no trespassing sign
We got to witness the sunset during our walk
The view while driving to enter into the campground area, it a gravel road but very smooth surface

This is so much fun!!! I have not been a fan of camping when I was a kid but now I really want to try it someday especially on a beautiful place like that! Thank you so much for taking our Flag and hanging it with Pride!

A great name for a campground! Looks like a really pretty area to camp and explore.
Love this! Your country seems like a fabulous place for camping. We camped all our lives ... tent, pickup with a shell, pop up trailer, and then finally a big fifth wheel that we lived and traveled in for almost twelve years (obviously after we retired). We still own a small camper van and love it. Your post brings wonderful memories. I love camping .
