Discovery Parks – Forster

Families return year after year to the magnificent river and facilities of Discovery Parks – Forster.

A hidden treasure of the region, our caravan park is on the tranquil shores of the Wallamba River. Relax and recharge or jump straight into an extraordinary selection of water activities – the choice is yours. The river offers fishing, kayaking and water skiing by day, and amazing sunsets by night. Nature lovers will enjoy exploring the coast and hinterland national parks, lookouts and beaches. Entertain the kids at nearby Big Buzz Fun Park or marvel at Australia’s largest motorcycle collection at the National Motorcycle Museum.
