The Outback Oddity

Parent & Child Edition

CAMP X COOK x CONNECT

May 03 - May 04, 2025

Remember when summer vacation meant going feral for two months? You drank straight from the hose, climbed trees just to see if you could, and followed random trails without an AirTag tracking your every move. Fast forward to now—your kid’s idea of danger is low battery mode, their sense of direction depends on Google Maps, and their biggest outdoor achievement? Beating a level in Minecraft. They’ve got Alexa Aunty solving their problems while you’re busy explaining things to your boss.

This weekend, change that! No phones, no WiFi, no work—just real adventure, the way it’s meant to be. Pitch a tent together (and pray it doesn’t collapse), start a fire without a YouTube tutorial, and cook up a storm under the stars. You’ll scramble up boulders just to see what’s on the other side, scrape a knee or two, and actually answer their “but why?” questions before Google does

Event Highlights

  • Can I bring my pets or kids?
    Yes, both pets and kids are welcome! Our campsite is family-friendly and designed to create unforgettable experiences for adventurers of all ages.
  • Is there internet connectivity at the campsite?
    The location of the campsite is quite remote. Mobile phone coverage is not great. We have gone out of way and purposefully kept the campsite off-the-grid! Over the years we have noticed that people are more fun and interesting without their phones! We do have reliable modes of communication in case of emergencies and can also arrange for a stable internet connection if your work needs you to be wired in during weekdays.
  • What kind of experience can I expect?
    An immersive connection with nature—raw, rugged, and real. Ideal for small groups who want to embrace the untamed outdoors and reconnect with the wilderness.
  • Do vehicles need to be modified for off-road driving?
    While modifications can enhance performance, they're not mandatory. Our guides will provide guidance.
  • Will guides provide vehicle-specific guidance?
    Yes, our experienced guides will offer tips and guidance on off-road driving techniques.
  • What type of vehicles are suitable for the trip?
    Since we will be taking the participants on an off-road trail, we recommend 4x4 vehicles for this event.
  • What vehicle checks should we perform before the trip?
    Ensure your vehicle is in good condition, with proper tire pressure, oil, and brakes.
  • Can we get vehicle maintenance support during the trip?
    Basic maintenance support like fixing a flat and minor issues will be available.
  • I have a 4x4 vehicle, but haven’t done much of off-roading, can I still join?
    This event is beginner friendly. So drivers with little to no prior off-road experience can also join us.
  • Can we get assistance with navigation and route-finding?
    Our guides will lead the way and provide navigation support.
  • Is camping safe? I’ve never camped before.
    Absolutely! You don’t need to be Bear Grylls to survive this weekend. Our crew of seasoned adventurers will make sure the only thing going off the rails is the fun. Whether you’ve never pitched a tent or can’t tell a firestarter from a marshmallow stick, we’ve got you covered. If your kid loves climbing furniture, chasing bugs, or asking way too many questions, they’ll fit right in. This weekend is designed for ages 5+, but if your little one is younger and already has the spirit of an explorer, bring them along! And yes, we have washrooms. No, they’re not hotel bathrooms, but they’re clean and functional.
  • What if my kid is a picky eater?
    You’re cooking your own food—so you decide what goes on the grill! We provide ingredients, but if your kid insists on Nutella sandwiches, feel free to pack extras.
  • Why the big push for the outdoors?
    Because fresh air beats screen time, and let’s be real—kids today think "exploring" means zooming in on Google Earth. Back when we were their age, we disappeared for hours, came home covered in dirt, and nobody freaked out. Now? They get GPS-tracked on the way to the fridge. Time to change that. Get ‘em outside, let ‘em climb, scrape a knee, and learn the kind of stuff they won’t find in a tutorial.
  • Can I bring more than one child? What if I’m coming solo with my kid(s)?
    Absolutely! Just be ready for double the excitement, double the energy, and possibly double the “I’m not tired” at bedtime. Coming solo with the kids? No worries—we’ve got a friendly crew and a solid camp community. There’ll always be an extra set of hands to help, whether it’s setting up a tent or keeping an eye on your little explorers while you take a breather.

  • Can I bring my pets or kids?
    Yes, both pets and kids are welcome! Our campsite is family-friendly and designed to create unforgettable experiences for adventurers of all ages.

  • Is parking available?
    Yes, parking is available at the base of the hill. From there, a 100 mtr uphill walk takes you to Glamping section and another 80 mtr walk takes you up to the camping and BYOT area. The adventurous ones can drive or ride up too after consulting the team.

We didn’t even know how much we needed this. Just us, no distractions. My son still talks about lighting the campfire — and how next time, he’s bringing his sister too.
