Reid River Rest Area

  • 2766.jpg

The Reid River Rest Area is not a bad spot to have a rest from driving, but not a lot to do or see at this location as the river is mostly dry and flows in the wet season.

Free Camping, Rest Area, 20 Hour Limit

Camping at Rest Areas Regulations in Queensland.

Rest Area Definition: A rest area is a safe area beside the road where motorists can pull off the roadway to rest.

You can sleep in most of the rest areas in Australia for 20 hours consecutive, but pitching a tent and setting up camp is prohibited.
Some areas of Queensland might have different time limits, so be observant and check if there are any erected sings with limits.

Facilities vary within each Rest Area, some may have public toilets, fireplaces, bbqs, picnic tables etc. or they might have nothing more than a place to safely park your vehicle.

Note: It is important motorists use rest areas designated for the type of vehicle they are driving.
