Pet policy
Yes, dogs are permitted to stay overnight at Glendora Campground in Hill End, NSW, as it is a NSW National Parks designated area allowing pets. Pet Policy Summary: - Requirements: Dogs must be kept on a leash and contained at all times. - Restrictions: Pets must not disturb other campers and are not permitted within 10m of barbecues or picnic tables. - Accommodation: Allowed in camping/caravan areas. - Fees: Typically no specific fee is mentioned for pets, but standard campsite fees apply. Note: As this is a National Parks location, policies regarding restricted breeds (muzzling) and proximity
Glendora Campground sits about a kilometre from the historic centre of Hill End, a gold rush village now run by NSW National Parks. It is an open, grassy bush camp where kangaroos wander through at dawn and dusk, and dogs are welcome on a leash throughout the site.
The rules. Dogs must stay on a leash at all times and can't be left to disturb other campers. Keep them at least 10 metres from barbecues and shared picnic tables. Restricted or dangerous breeds under the Companion Animals Act must be muzzled. Book ahead and pay standard NPWS camping fees, there's no separate pet charge.
What's there. Flushing toilets, water taps and picnic pavilions are on site, but there's no dedicated pet water station, so bring your own bowl. Sites are spacious enough for tents, camper trailers, caravans and motorhomes to set up right next to the car.
Getting there. The campground is off Hill End Road, about a kilometre northwest of the village via Lees Lane. Access is gravel but manageable for most vehicles.
Nearby with the dogs. The main street of Hill End village is an easy on-leash wander past heritage buildings, and Bald Hill Lookout is a short trip away with views over the old goldfields, though it pays to check local signage before heading in.
