Kilmore Caravan Park

Your Peaceful Retreat in Historic Kilmore

Nestled just an hour’s drive north of Melbourne, Kilmore Caravan Park offers a tranquil and welcoming escape in one of Victoria’s oldest inland towns. Whether you’re embarking on a grand tour, seeking a weekend getaway, or simply passing through, our park provides the perfect base to relax, recharge, and explore the rich heritage and scenic beauty of the Mitchell Shire. Our commitment is to provide a clean, safe, and friendly environment for all our guests, ensuring your stay is both comfortable and memorable.

The park is thoughtfully laid out to accommodate a variety of travellers. We feature spacious, drive-through powered sites suitable for large motorhomes and fifth-wheelers, as well as grassy unpowered sites perfect for tents, camper trailers, and those seeking a more traditional camping experience. All sites are conveniently located near our well-maintained amenities block, which includes clean toilets, hot showers, and modern laundry facilities. For those who enjoy cooking outdoors, our covered camp kitchen and BBQ areas provide the ideal setting to prepare a meal and socialise with fellow travellers. We understand that pets are part of the family, which is why our park is proudly pet-friendly, allowing you to share your adventure with your furry companions.

Beyond the park gates, the historic town of Kilmore awaits. Take a leisurely stroll down Sydney Street to admire the stunning 19th-century bluestone architecture, including the old courthouse and gaol. Discover unique local shops, enjoy a classic pub meal, or delve into local history at the town’s monuments. For nature enthusiasts, the surrounding area boasts beautiful walking trails, reserves, and the scenic Valley of a Thousand Hills. With easy access to major highways, Kilmore Caravan Park is not just a destination but a gateway to the wider wonders of regional Victoria. We look forward to welcoming you.
