BOWMAN PARK

Public BBQ

Bowman Park creates a magical camping and recreation experience combining natural beauty with historical intrigue. This RV-friendly reserve welcomes self-contained caravans for 48-hour stays, featuring immaculate toilet facilities, fire pits, and a nature-inspired playground woven among ruins of old stone-walled homes. The atmospheric setting includes walking and bike trails through native bush, where wildlife encounters with monitors and lyrebirds enhance the experience. Peacocks add color to this well-maintained park managed by an onsite caretaker. Located 5km from Crystal Brook, the level parking areas, potable water, and BBQ facilities make it an ideal stopover. The expansive oval and adventure playground provide endless exploration opportunities for children, while the historic building remnants create an eerie yet fascinating backdrop.
