Backpacking

Experience real Backpacking in the Capricorn Region...

There's so much to see and so many wonderfully quirky, off-the-beaten track places to visit in the Capricorn Region. This is where you will meet some real people and have the chance to experience the real Australia! You can explore the historic, bustling town of Rockhampton or get caught-up in the thrill of a live rodeo, perhaps fossick for sapphires. Maybe uncovering rainforests is more your style, while ancient aboriginal sites can be found at Carnarvon Gorge. Do not forget to dive into the Great Barrier Reef from the Keppel Islands or simply relax on one of the many secluded beaches that dot the coastline.

All your desired holiday destinations are right at your fingertips in the Capricorn Region.

Rockhampton has some great 'true blue' Aussie, affordable backpacking accommodation available, waiting for you to explore. Choose from either hotel, motel, backpackers, camping and caravan or island retreats in order to get the best backpacking experience through the Capricorn Region.

Begin your backpacking tour at the Capricorn Caves than venture to the Dreamtime Cultural Centre to learn of the Aboriginal traditions. Move onto the Botanic Gardens and Zoo then perhaps stop at one of the many cafes for a quick coffee and shop along the banks of the Fitzroy River, which is situated in the hub of Rockhampton.
