Parker Hill Campground

Parker Hill Campground is a small, quiet camping area within Great Otway National Park in Victoria, situated on a forested hilltop near Cape Otway.

The site overlooks the Parker River estuary and a coastal beach below, with stringybark trees providing shade across most campsites. Wildlife is commonly spotted here, including koalas and wallabies.

The campground offers 20 unpowered, tent-only campsites, each accommodating up to six people. Facilities are basic, including non-flush toilets and on-site information. No fires are permitted, no drinking water is available, and there is no rubbish collection.

Advance bookings and payment are required year-round. Parker Hill sits along the Great Ocean Walk, making it a popular overnight stop for multi-day hikers travelling between Apollo Bay and the Twelve Apostles.

The beach is a short walk downhill, and the surrounding area offers opportunities for wildlife viewing, fishing, and short coastal walks.
