APEX RIVERSIDE PARK

Public BBQ

A donation campground on the Thomson River at Longreach, ten dollars a night or forty for the week into an honesty box, which makes it exceptional value as a base for the town's attractions. There is a large shed by the river with tables, chairs and electric barbecues, plus undercover picnic tables in the adjoining park and loungers down at the water. Toilets are cleaned daily and include both flushing and long drop, but there are no showers and no power. Potable water taps run along the fenceline and bins are plentiful. Fishing off the bridge is popular and the night sky is superb. The ground turns to mud after rain or a high river and heavy vans do get bogged, so choose a site carefully. Roosters roam the grounds and start early.
