New Pelion Hut Public Campsite

The New Pelion Hut Public Campsite sits alongside the Overland Track near Douglas Creek in Cradle Mountain-Lake St Clair National Park, Tasmania, at roughly 900 metres elevation in the Central Highlands.

It occupies a grassy area near the turn-off to New Pelion Hut, which is the largest hut on the Overland Track and marks the junction with the Arm River Track.

The campsite offers a mix of tent options: a large timber platform accommodating three tents, with additional camping on grass. Some sites sit close to the main track, while smaller, more private spots can be found in the surrounding bush.

The setting is framed by the Pelion Range, with views toward Mount Oakleigh and Pelion Plains, and wombats and pademelons are commonly spotted in the area.
