Newnes campground
No vehicle access! It's a long, roughly 10km walk to reach Newnes campground. The campground is walk-in only because Wolgan Road has collapsed and there's a landslip risk at Wolgan Gap. Wolgan Road was the only vehicle access into the valley and is managed by Lithgow Council.

This campsite has it all. Wilderness and no phone reception. Wildlife. I’ve seen kangaroos and wallabies, wombats, possums and plenty of birds. Easy 2wd access. Fire pits. Clean drop toilets. Plenty of space to pitch a tent but it can get quite busy at the weekend. I highly recommend this campsite 👍
Great spot with stunning views and great walks. Very busy though for a normal weekend we arrived at 7 am on Saturday morning to find it side by side with campers in the main campground so we opted to hang back from the thick of it which was lovely having an array of wildlife joining us

Hi, is this campsite suitable for caravans as well as camper trailers?
Yes, could even access in a 2wd by Brooke M.
Can we do campfire ??
You can usually but there might be a fire ban when you go. Make sure to check before you plan your trip. I’d also bring my own firewood as the shop doesn’t always stock it. by Casey F.

Top 10 campsites that allow fires near Kandos, NSW
They say life is better around the campfire. And we could not agree more. Over the years due to increase fire risk it's become a challenge to find great campsites that allow you to have a fire by your tent. Please be a responsible Aircamper and brush up on your fire safety knowledge. Bushwalking NSW has a great article that'll give you the rundown on how to light a fire responsibly. Below we've collected some hidden gems near Kandos, NSW that still allow you to sit back, toast your feet and incinerate some marshmallows while telling stories about camping when you were a kid.
