Camping offers the best option to experience the diversity of Cape York Peninsula's many and varied features.
National Parks Service camping areas on the Peninsula have varying levels of amenities. These range from the well-appointed Kalpowar Crossing campground on Lakeland National Park, through to basic designated sites with no facilities at all which require visitors to be fully self-contained.
Camping on any National Park or other protected area in Queensland requires a camping guide permit, for which a fee is charged. Better facilities are provided at commercial campgrounds situated at or near most population centres, including public campgrounds run by the Aboriginal communities at the top of Cape York Peninsula, and at Kowanyama in the lower south-west.
