Dayspring

“Dayspring” offers a unique camping experience with two secluded sites that are situated along the scenic Albert River, perfect for group bookings or for those who prefer solitude. Each site is private and can accommodate up to five vehicles. Located in the picturesque Scenic Rim Shire, the sites are well-maintained with turfed and mowed areas, ideal for relaxing on the grass and listening to the soothing sounds of the river’s crystal-clear rapids. As night falls, you’ll be serenaded by the calls of frogs.

The area boasts beautiful swimming holes, providing a perfect spot to enjoy the natural beauty of this part of Australia. Dayspring is located just a short distance downstream from Darlington Park. One of the highlights of this location is the breathtaking night sky. The campfire area, positioned near the rapids and shielded by the high riverbank, blocks out the lights from the city, allowing for a spectacular view of the stars. It’s not uncommon to witness multiple shooting stars in a single night.

The best time to enjoy stargazing is within a week either side of the new moon. For an extraordinary experience, you can find out when the International Space Station (ISS) is passing overhead and be amazed by the view. Additionally, the week leading up to a full moon is ideal for gatherings.
