Echo Pt is a nice campsite with great views but no water.

Ones listed on parks website are:
Bithongabel: Good views depending on how overgrown it is. Easy to get to. No water

Echo Pt: Good views from the lookout. Easy to get to. No water.

Illinbah

Rat-a-tat: Nice flat area. Water nearby. Bit more of an adventure to get to.

Stinson: Haven't camped here but there seem to be plenty of space. Not sure how flat it was though. Point Lookout might be a better option nearby.

Lost World creek: Not acres of space. Spectacular views though. Water available. Not sure how reliable it is. Another option is the peak of Mt. Razorback next to the cairn.

Lost World Saddle: Plenty of space. No water. Big angry ants. No unobstructed views.

Darlington
Running Creek

Cheers


There is space on top of Mt. Throakban for a tent or two. This was where we camped when doing the stinson through walk.
