Paroo river Campground
Last Updated Jan 2014 | Originally suggested by combicombi
Riverside, bush camping on the Paroo River, just off the road.
There are no amenities, just gravel and some scattered shade. Still, this is a nice spot to spend a couple of days, exploring the waterway and wildlife.
Take care during heavy rain as the area is susceptible to flooding.
Plenty of bird life attracted to the river. Took the kayak for a spin last time I went through, although the river was fairly low and could only get about 1km from the camp (upstream from the weir). Might be worth trying after a little rain.
Easy access for caravans and more than enough room to swing a cat (or big rig).
Eulo has a general store and pub, both of which were very friendly, so worth stopping by to have a light refreshment.
