About this campsite

Maxwelton Rest Area is a serene, open, and treeless destination, perfect for a quick stopover or a lunch break during your journey. Its main offering includes a well-sheltered picnic area, providing cover as you enjoy a meal amidst nature. However, recent updates have turned this once easy-going spot into a designated truck stop, restricting overnight stays by the nomadic community. Even with these changes, its charm as a restful stop along the route remains intact.
