spacious grassed sites
November 20th, 2007
The Cania Gorge Tourist Retreat is a 4 star establishment, part of a national chain and Dogs are WELCOME. It is situated in a valley of colourful sandstone walls and offers spacious, grassy powered and unpowered sites for caravaners and campers. A very well equipped community camp kitchen makes it easy for campers who are lightly equipped or only travelling with bare essentials. Owners Gerard and Margaret pride themselves on making sure that their park is an eco-friendly one and have made numerous improvements in this direction in the last 18months since taking it over. For me it was lovely to see the free-range chooks roaming around the park grazing on what ever they could find in the grass. At 4pm each day you can feed the parrots, this was an amazing experience as hundreds of parrots flew in to have a feed, their non-stop chatter makes your ears ring.
Cania Gorge Tourist Retreat is relaxing and peaceful, there are hammocks hung throughout the park just waiting for you to take an afternoon ceiester or just kick back and read a book. If you have your dog with you, as I did, you will be happy to know there is a large dog walking area and plenty of shade. The tourist retreat is bordering the National Park and 6 of 7 walking tracks in the National Park leave from the front gate.
