Running Creek Camping

Running Creek Camping is a family-owned and operated campground nestled at the base of the stunning Bellthorpe National Park.

The property features a spacious camping area with ‘free range’ style sites, allowing you the freedom to choose your ideal spot for a relaxing stay. The campground offers various camping areas accessible by all vehicle types. Basic amenities are available on-site to ensure comfort, though guests are encouraged to bring their own facilities to minimise their environmental impact, as part of the site’s eco-friendly approach.

Running Creek Camping prides itself on providing guests with a peaceful and serene environment to unwind and enjoy the natural beauty of the Australian bush. The creek, which runs through the camping area, offers a lovely spot to explore, have a shallow splash, and cool down.

For those seeking more adventure, the Bellthorpe National Park walking tracks begin right from the campground. Off-site, 4WD enthusiasts will find plenty of tracks in Bellthorpe National Park and the Glasshouse Mountains to explore.

This location is an ideal base for visiting Australia Zoo, Queensland’s premier zoo, and for exploring the Moreton Bay and Sunshine Coast hinterlands.

Conveniently located within an hour’s drive from both Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, Running Creek Camping offers a peaceful retreat where you can experience tranquillity and relaxation.

Immerse yourself in the lush Australian bush at one of our Bushland Campsites. Our campsites offer the flexibility to be as large or as small as you need, allowing you to select the perfect spot upon arrival. There’s no need to worry about crowded spaces or the hassle of unhitching your van or trailer.

The campsite features areas with dappled shade as well as open sunny spots, ideal for meeting your solar power needs. All campers have access to the tranquil Running Creek, a shallow, rocky creek that is spring-fed and flows for most of the year. Basic toilet and bin facilities are centrally located within the campground, with shower amenities available just a short walk from the main camping areas.
