This is one of four campgrounds located within the Narawntapu National Park. They are all accessible by Caravans and Motorhomes, except for Koybaa Campground which is for Tents only as there are bollards that prevent vehicle or caravan access.
SITE ACCESS
The park is easily reached from either Devonport or Launceston. Situated on the central north coast of Tasmania, Narawntapu National Park is less than one hour’s drive from Launceston. From Launceston, you can get to West Head and Badger Beach at the eastern end of the park by driving up the West Tamar Highway and turning left into C721.
The main body of the park, Springlawn and Bakers Beach, is accessible from B71 east of Devonport or B72 north of Westbury. Watch for the marked turnoff to the park, C740.
Please note: GPS Co-Ordinates are approximate and provided in most cases to get you as close to the camp site as possible, or to the National Park entrance. Once inside the park there should be signs to the actual camp grounds. Failing this please check with National Parks for further directions.
