Calliope River Rest Area is a large free camp area located well off the Bruce Highway 7km north of Calliope. If you turn off 2 km south of the river you can get over to the other side.
Access to Calliope River Rest Area is from either side of the river. The turn off 4km north of the Dawson Highway will take you to a wide area suitable for large rigs. This area is lower than the northern side of the river, so if it looks like heavy rain, chose the northern side. Access to the northern section is via River Ranch.
Note: Sign warns of crocodiles in area.
