Comfort, Convenience & Outback Charm. Your Tranquil Base in Queensland’s Historic Gold District
Discover the perfect place to unwind on the quiet outskirts of historic Ravenswood. Top Camp Caravan Park & Roadhouse offers a peaceful, pet-friendly stay just moments from the township and serves as the tranquil gateway to the region’s active gold mining district.
As part of Haoma’s footprint in Ravenswood, Top Camp supports both mining professionals and outback adventurers looking for clean, quiet, and well-equipped accommodation. Whether you’re exploring Queensland’s gold history or working the land, your basecamp awaits.
Accommodation in Queensland’s Historic Gold District
Just 43km south of Charters Towers and 100km from Townsville, Top Camp is conveniently located for travellers heading west or seeking a peaceful escape.
Perched at the gateway to Ravenswood – a gold rush township established in 1868 – Top Camp is located on the Burdekin Falls Dam road just before the turn-off into town. This location provides a serene, dust-free environment well away from active mining operations. Unlike the council campgrounds located at the oval, which are closer to the noise of the mine, our park is set amongst shady trees and picturesque scenery.

Centrally located within an hour and a half of Townsville, Charters Towers, and Ayr, Top Camp is the perfect base for exploring regional heritage. Take a half-day trip to the Burdekin Falls Dam (160km round trip), where you can drive across the base of the dam wall and get up close with the spillway.
