Remarkable school camp
NESTLED at the base of Mount Remarkable, Camp Willochra is an ideal base for school camps and exploration of the Southern Flinders Ranges.
Camp Willochra consists of three wings surrounding a central oval and can accommodate up to 94 school students and staff seeking a rural environment at a reasonable price.
There are plenty of beautiful hiking and mountain biking trails in the Mount Remarkable National Park with many bushwalkers challenging themselves with the rewarding climb to the summit of Mount Remarkable, looking over the Willochra Plain and the Spencer Gulf.
The National Park is home to the endangered yellow-footed rock wallaby as well as echidnas, goannas, monitors, emus, western grey kangaroos and more than 117 native bird species.
Camp Willochra is perfectly situated as a base for a range of activities and offers plenty of outdoor sporting space, a 10 metre swimming pool and entertainment options for students, including a welcoming camp fire to sit around on a cold winter’s night.
