4. FLORENCE FALLS OLD 4WD CAMPGROUND
Florence Falls is a short walk from the Old 4WD Campground, which itself is accessible by 2WD vehicles and has a range of sites to suit all comers. It is best for classic Top End camping with easy access to waterfalls.
Florence Falls is another Litchfield icon, and while the main campground can get busy, the 2WD-accessible section offers a more laid-back experience. It’ s just a short drive off the main loop road, and the sites here are spread out, with plenty of space for caravans, motorhomes, camper trailers, rooftop tents or swags under the stars.
Facilities include flushing toilets, fire pits, picnic tables, and hot showers, although Florence Falls itself is all the shower you’ ll need. A short walk down the gorge takes you to a magical swimming hole with twin falls cascading into deep, clear water. It’ s one of the most beautiful spots in the park, and early morning swims here are something else.
If you’ re up for a bit of a walk, the Florence Creek Trail links this campground to Buley Rockhole, another great swimming spot with tiered pools and fewer people in the early morning or late arvo.
Hot tip: Stay two nights and hike the Florence-Buley loop at dawn – you’ ll beat the heat and the crowds.
