Chinchilla Weir

Camping is available (two nights maximum) with recently upgraded toilets, limited powered sites, barbecue and picnic facilities. Chinchilla Weir is a concrete-faced earth-fill structure eight kilometres south of Chinchilla and is known for the unique curved design of its wall. Located on the Condamine River, ten kilometres south of Chinchilla, it’s a popular freshwater playground for both locals and visitors with waterskiing, canoeing, swimming and fishing (please note a fishing permit is required). Donations for camping are accepted at the Chinchilla Visitor Information Centre, and some power and barbecues are available. It is a shady, relaxing place where you can photograph a spectacular Western Downs sunset over the water and a top-rated bird-watching spot. The area is pet friendly so you are welcome to bring your fur babies along with you. Landscaping works and upgrades to facilities have been completed and visitors are welcome to enjoy this fabulous facility.
