RV Friendlies & Events



Australia is built for the open road — and RV Friendlies is how we celebrate the towns and places that welcome you with open arms.


The RV Friendly Town™ program recognises councils that go the extra mile for RV travellers, with easy access, safe parking and welcoming facilities. RV Friendly Destinations™ do the same for specific sites within a community — perfect for towns still building their offering.


We also share events happening in these towns, so members can plan their next trip around a local market, festival or rally, not just a place to park.


Together, these programs connect our 60,000+ members with places that genuinely want them there. Because when a town says "RV Friendly," you know you're welcome.

Bingara - NSW RVFT

Bingara is situated on the Gwydir River, approximately 150 kilometres north of Tamworth. The area was discovered in 1827, immediately attracting graziers, and in 1852 the gold prospectors followed. In the 1880s, copper and diamonds were discovered, and Bingara was the largest producer of diamonds at that time. The Gwydir River Camping Areas (off White & Faithful Sts) offer both short and long-term parking. There is no cost to stay at these sites; however, vehicles must be self-contained, and a maximum stay of 7 days applies. Pets on leads are welcome at the camping areas. Potable water can be found at Cunningham Park (a small fee applies for water), and a dump point is located at the corner of Riddle Street & Bingara Cementery Road. The Gwydir River offers plenty of activities, including fishing, canoeing and river rafting. One of the best ways to experience the area is on horseback with Gwydir River Trail Rides, taking in the pleasure of superb bush trails along the river and high into the ranges.
