The Dalby region (near Toowoomba) offers a massive Free Camping area at Bowenville Reserve, which sits alongside Oakey Creek. You’ll find it just 9km off the Warrego Highway in Bowenville and about 30km south-east of Dalby itself.
Onsite are flushing toilets, rubbish bins and a small playground. It’s also a great easy fishing spot with level ground for plenty of campers for up to 7 days.
