Camping under our night skies is the perfect way to experience the Upper Gascoyne.  In addition to the campsites available at both the Gascoyne Junction Pub and Tourist Park and the Mount Augustus Tourist Park there are two other options on the eastern and western side of Kennedy Range National Park for a true off the beaten track experience.
