Karma Waters Station

Camping is allowed on Karma Waters with permission. We have 9 sites on the river and is basic bush camping; so it is essential you bring your own toilet.

Under our Workplace Health and Safety Policy there is a requirement for people accessing the property to be inducted and sign a waiver. The induction has our regulations for camping.

Arrival must be between 11am and 5pm. Departing must be before 11am. (Unless prior arrangements have been made with Management)

There are no motorbikes, 4 wheelers, weapons or hunting dogs allowed on the property. (Pet friendly)

Due to the road conditions (45km of gravel, gullies) and access to the river we don't cater for caravans.

Follow this driving map for directions from Mount Carbine.

Bookings are available from the 1st January for that year.

All recreation access is closed from the 24th December to the 1st April to stop erosion on access roads and allows for an unimpeded spawning season for fish and prawns.

PLEASE NOTE: The cost is now $30 per vehicle per night plus a small booking fee if paying by Credit Card online.

Location

Karma Waters Station is a family owned property. It is 200km North West of Cairns on the northern side of the Mitchell River. The property is approximately 45000 hectares, made up of shaly or greywacke ridges. Access is via the Mulligan highway, 25km west of Mt. Carbine and along Hurricane road and Karma Waters road.

The block north (approximately 19700h) of the St George was won in a ballot in 1989 which is very hilly country and then we purchased an Occupation Licence from Fred Burdell in 1991. The block we bought from Nychum is approximately 10 km wide and enjoys a 50 km frontage to the Mitchell River which is where the homestead is situated. Both blocks were bare of infrastructure and cattle.
