Camping Along Tasmania’s Heritage Highway, Launceston to Hobart

For campers and caravanners, this stretch of Tasmania offers something rare: proper history paired with genuinely relaxed, good-value places to pull in for the night. From riverside caravan parks where platypus sometimes pop by at dusk, to wide-open recreation grounds perfect for a quiet cuppa, and bush hideaways where you’ll hear more birds than cars, camping along the Heritage Highway is an experience in itself.

This guide walks you from Evandale in the north to Bagdad in the south, highlighting every legitimate spot to roll out the awning, recharge, and slip into the slower rhythm of the Midlands. Whether you prefer power and hot showers or you’re happiest tucked away in the bush with a pair of gumboots and a fishing rod, there’s a patch of Tassie here with your name on it.
