Volunteer as a Campground Host in the Northern Territory
DO YOU LOVE CAMPING AND MEETING NEW PEOPLE?
Volunteering as a Campground Host in the Northern Territory is a great way to enjoy some of Australia’s best nature and wildlife experiences while providing important services to park visitors.
Enjoy spectacular waterfalls at Litchfield National Park, or discover the ancient landscapes of Finke Gorge National Park in the Red Centre.
Experience the rugged landscapes, wildlife, and Aboriginal and pastoral histories of the East MacDonnell Ranges at Trephina Gorge Nature Park, fish the mighty Victoria River or take a walk through the spectacular gorge country of Judbarra/Gregory National Park.
The Territory is waiting to be explored.
Our Campground Hosts are often the first point of contact for visitors. They support our Rangers by welcoming campers, providing general information about the area and assisting with the maintenance of visitor facilities.
A First Aid Certificate and a valid National Police Check is required. Campground Hosts are largely self-sufficient with their own tent or caravan, staying on site for at least three weeks.
When is hosting available?
Hosts are particularly needed between May and August — the dry season in the Top End, and the cooler months in Central Australia. Some host sites are also available in April and September depending on weather and access.
