Korumburra Tourist Park: Your Gateway to South Gippsland

★★★★☆

Rating: 4.5 / 5 stars

Nestled in a serene valley just a short stroll from the town centre, Korumburra Tourist Park offers the perfect blend of country tranquillity and convenient access to the wonders of South Gippsland. Surrounded by the iconic rolling green hills that define this beautiful region, our park provides a peaceful and welcoming atmosphere for all travellers. Whether you’re pulling in with a caravan, setting up a tent, or looking for a comfortable cabin stay, you’ll find our park is the ideal base to relax, recharge, and explore.

Our park is thoughtfully laid out to provide a spacious and comfortable experience. We pride ourselves on maintaining clean, modern facilities and offering a friendly environment where families, couples, and solo adventurers can feel right at home. The park’s unique location, adjoining the magnificent Korumburra Botanic Park, allows guests to immerse themselves in nature, with majestic trees, abundant native birdlife, and peaceful creek-side walks right on your doorstep. The gentle chirping of birds provides a natural soundtrack to your stay, far from the noise of passing traffic.

From here, the best of the region is within easy reach. Discover the heritage of Coal Creek, cycle or walk the Great Southern Rail Trail, or take a scenic drive through the Strzelecki Ranges. The local town of Korumburra boasts charming cafes, historic pubs, and unique shops. We are more than just a place to stay; we are a community of travellers and a gateway to creating lasting memories in one of Victoria’s most picturesque landscapes. We look forward to welcoming you.
