Thiess Memorial Park – Heifer Creek Rest Area

Fordsdale, QLD

About this campsite

Escape to the tranquility of the Heifer Creek Rest Area, situated in Thiess Memorial Park. This spacious overnight or weekend spot offers a stunning view overlooking the gorge, complemented by an abundance of shade. Though few of the sites are perfectly level, there is plenty of turning space available for rigs of any size. You'll find this quaint getaway nestled between Gatton and Warwick. Nestle down and relax in the peaceful, green surroundings as you listen to the gentle rush of the creek nearby. For explorers and adventurers, you can even enjoy a dip or sit in the running water. While we have seen some nice road repairs in the area, we recommend approaching the bend in the road near the entrance with caution due to limited visibility. So, why wait? Embark on a memorable journey to the Heifer Creek Rest Area – nature awaits you!
