Potters Gorge Campground
Tourism WA

At some campgrounds, campfires are not permitted at any time. At others, they are permitted seasonally. The table below shows current campfire conditions at each campground.

If conditions demand restrictions can be imposed without notice at any time or place. You must always comply with any instructions at campgrounds and parks.

Check today's fire danger ratings at Emergency WA. Tomorrow's fire danger ratings are generally available from 4pm AWST.

Check current restrictions on the movement of wood, including firewood. Collecting firewood and kindling is not permitted in national parks and other conservation reserves.
