About this campsite

Prominently positioned along the Pacific Highway, the 12 Mile Hill Rest Area is an expansive, bitumen drive-through rest stop, accommodating traffic traveling north. Its design allows for a seamless entry and exit, enabling vehicles of any size to comfortably rest. Despite its proximity to the highway, a natural buffer of trees provides a degree of tranquility, shielding visitors from highway noise. Additionally, a brief, gravel pathway offers easy access to the historical Old Pacific Highway, enhancing the rest area's appeal to travelers seeking both convenience and a touch of local nostalgia.
