Pritchards Landing
Overview
Pritchards Landing sits right on the banks of the Glenelg River, offering a relaxed bush camping experience in the heart of Lower Glenelg National Park. With 20 unpowered sites tucked among the trees, it's a favourite spot for families, paddlers, and anyone keen to unwind by the water. Whether you're rolling in with a caravan, pitching a tent, or bringing the campervan, there's a site to suit, including a tent-only option for those who like things simple.
Days here are shaped by the river - launch a canoe or kayak straight from camp, cast a line for bream off the jetty, or wander along the Great South West Walk to take in the sights and sounds of the bush. Evenings are best spent around the campfire, swapping stories under a sky full of stars. It's a laid-back base for exploring the region or just soaking up the peace and quiet.

Campers love Pritchards Landing for its peaceful, riverfront setting on the Glenelg River, abundant wildlife and frequent koala sightings. Reviews highlight spacious, level and sheltered campsites with river views, plus clean, well maintained facilities. Standout features include flush toilets, campfire facilities at each site, tables and seats, and good separation of cooking areas from camping.
It is a favourite for boating, canoeing, fishing and swimming, thanks to the massive jetty, several jetties to fish from and an easy boat ramp. Visitors also praise the accessible layout for all types of vehicles, including buses, and mention reasonable fees. A beautiful, tranquil spot that many return to year after year.
