Gunneemooroo campground is a picturesque campground set in the shadows of Mount Naman. Located in the southern part of Warrumbungle National Park, it’s a remote bushland setting where tranquility and a relaxing outback retreat awaits.

Find a campsite at this peaceful back-to-basics campground, then wander down to the nearby creek to explore.

After a day immersed in nature, sit back and savour the flavours of hot tucker around the campfire (fire bans may be in place). Step away from the warmth of the fire to enjoy stargazing and be mesmerised by the abundance of stars sprayed across the night sky. You might also hear the sounds of boobook owls in the trees and tawny frogmouths from the nearby creek.

Warrumbungle National Park after-fire program

The 2013 bushfires were the largest and most intense on record for Warrumbungle National Park. Almost 90 per cent of the park was burnt, but conservation programs and research have helped us better understand the impact of fire and how the park has recovered.
