Emerald Escape Camping is operating in accordance with our Covid-19 Health Management Plan.
Our totally isolated and private camp sites, each with their own toilet, are ideally suited to spend some soothing time in nature with your family while remaining isolated from everyone else and while observing government rules in regards to physical separation and isolation.

Here just three samples from the numerous positive feedback received from our campers:
Lisa:
“Absolutely loved it… so peaceful and private and cool to camp at this time of year [Lisa camped in December]. We thought we would have to abandon our camping trip as it was raining in Koah but we had no rain where we camped. Thank you!”
Bruce: ” What a fantastic place so close to cairns kuranda and mareeba but yet so far away! Fabulous creek and wonderful bush camp feel? We will definitely be back!!”
Trent: ” We really enjoyed the peaceful privacy and natural surroundings. The crystal clear creek was very refreshing and we are looking forward to our next visit. Thank you for sharing such a wonderful property so close to Cairns.”

Emerald Escape Camping is owned and operated by Kanjini Co-Op, we are working towards creating a sustainable rural community as well as providing businesses and services to the wider community on this magnificent property. One of our first businesses is to share most of this magnificent 6600 acre property with the wider community by providing isolated private camp sites. We started with just six sites spread over nearly 3000 acres and have now expanded to 14 sites, still ensuring privacy by trying to keep them visually and spatially well apart.

“Adler Hill Holding”, our over 25 square kilometer big property, is located in Far North Queensland, a 40 minute drive west of Smithfield, Cairns, and just 15 minutes from the major Tableland township of Mareeba where you will find any amenities and services you might need.

Our focus has been to create a camping experience similar to staying on a friend’s bush-block or going way out bush to experience the privacy of your own camp site without other campers right next to you. We have designed the sites to have plenty of space between them and to highlight some of the diverse and beautiful areas that can be found on this stunning property eg. on the creek, by the lake, and amazing sunset views from up in the hills…

We have created 14 camp sites spread over 3000 acres giving you plenty of space and privacy and an amazing landscape to explore. We offer both 2WD and 4WD sites, ranging in size from small family getaways to larger workshop and retreat spaces or that special birthday party. The property has lots to offer: a 25 acre lake, 3km frontage along the crystal clear and always cool emerald creek, several small dams, great mountain bike tracks, lots of hikes, big trees, cycads and grass-trees, panoramic views from the ridges of the escarpments and much more…
And there are many activities you can do during your camp-out on our land.

Please note that cats or dogs will not be allowed, since this is a high-value conservation zone.
Even just the smell of dog or cat excrement will scare wildlife and make them avoid areas.
This is a place for you to come and visit country where our native animals can live in less fear of humans, since no predators are brought along.
