It is great for families with young children, grey nomads, young couples, backpackers and pretty much anyone who enjoys going camping. About 40% of Tasmania is protected as National Parks and reserves and across Tassie, there are more than 50 great caravan parks Tasmania. Any time of the year is great to go camping in Tasmania, at coastal or in bush locations. Get out the tent, air the sleeping bag and make sure the 4WD or caravan is serviced and the gas bottle full. Choose from campgrounds provided by commercial operators or formal, and informal free campsites in Tasmania. Many campsites are within national parks and in forest reserves managed by Forestry Tasmania or Hydro Tasmania. Informal campsites are generally marked as such and you need to check on usage requirements at each site, as they will vary depending upon your exact location. Many sites will require camper self-registration, and the payment of fees using an honesty system. Take care in summer when camping in Tasmania, bushfires are common, and can be unpredictable and expose you to danger very quickly. In winter, some areas are subject to extreme weather including snow, frost, heavy rains, and strong winds.
