In 2022, Walkamin Caravan Park took out two major awards in the Tablelands Regional Council’s annual garden competition. Winning awards for the best Commercial Garden and the first ever People’s Choice award. It was the first time the council has included a People’s Choice award which attracted 392 votes.
The beauty in the gardens at the park is testament to our region’s range of climate and the passion the owners have for our gardens. Many of our guests are avid gardeners and really enjoy being surrounded by the luscious tropical garden oasis which attract a variety of many birds and butterflies.
The park has over 2km of irrigation, and newly planted over 400 natives as well as creating an orchid wall and establishing a lot of colourful flowering beds.
“Our guests love to walk around the gardens in the afternoon.”
We have a specific vision for the garden but wanted to ensure what we planted would not need copious amounts of watering and be easy to grow. “We have great soil in Walkamin, if you put a cutting in the ground and water it, it will grow”.
