Bilyana Rest Area

Bilyana Rest Area is a free campsite on the western side of the Bruce Highway in the Cassowary Coast Region of Far North Queensland, situated roughly 21 km north of Cardwell and 22 km south of Tully.

It also serves as a Driver Reviver centre during holiday periods and is suitable for caravans and larger rigs. The site has a bitumen surface with grassed areas, shaded spots, and sheltered picnic tables.

A railway line runs behind the rest area, though trains pass only a couple of times a day. The area can be busy and somewhat noisy due to highway proximity, particularly in peak season, but additional space is available closer to the railway line.

Mobile phone reception is available depending on carrier, and dogs are welcome with conditions.
