About this campsite

Discover the natural allure of the Broadwater Recreational Reserve, strategically situated 21km from Nanango. Renowned for its growing popularity among birdwatching enthusiasts, the park is perched on the serene banks of Barker Creek, offering two separate but equally impressive clearings along the creek stretch. Indulge in the spacious shaded areas, perfect for a variety of outdoor pursuits or sit back and delight in the site's expansive water stretch - a favorite spot for avid fishermen based on observed on-site activities. Turning the pages of history, you'll find an intriguing local tale centered around a narrow, overgrown concrete strip in the middle of the second clearing, said to have once served as a cricket pitch. Whether myth or reality, this quirky anecdote injects an intriguing narrative, enhancing this site's cultural charm. Fascinatingly, the Barker Creek, which adds to the reserve's scenic allure, originates from the Bunya Mountains at an elevation of 591m and gracefully merges with the Barambah Creek below Bjelke-Peterson Dam at 290m, highlighting the site's intriguing geographical attributes.
