-
When passing through new and unfamiliar places, find the best places to park the caravan just like a local!

Find all the dog-friendly locations along the way, so that beloved pets can enjoy your travels as well.
Why use edgeguides?
Because you can get "The Edge" while travelling...
- Check out the EdgeGuides map as you plan to travel or when on the road, to see what other people have shared, and all the events coming up at that location!
- Because it’s fun ...
- Members can see what others have shared, and contribute by ‘pinning’ their own favourite places and experiences on the map. For example, where to get the best coffee in town!
- Because Membership is free!

Splash Park - St George, QLD
'The perfect way to cool off and enjoy some good ol’ fashion fun. There is a lot to love about this aquatic playground, which will entertain kids big and small.
Facilities include a 50 metre lap pool, a heated artesian pool (BATHS), and the newly-build children's splash park. Amenities, change rooms, and a canteen are available to patrons.'
Thanks to 'Clever Camper' for the recommendation!

A delicious slice of heaven!
