The ideal site isn’t always available as seen on many youtube videos and travelling shows but it is important to pick the
right site to suit your needs. Here is a list of things to consider when finding a suitable site to unhitch and enjoy your
Maverick Campers’ van or trailer:
- Size of the site
o Select a site that will allow the positioning of the van/trailer, your towing vehicle, you camp setup for
fires, cooking, relaxing
- Level and terrain of the site
o A level site is ideal to ensure you don’t run the risk of the trailer or van moving and that when you are
inside your van/trailer that the occupants don’t feel a sense of unbalance when sitting or sleeping
o Ensure that the terrain is suitable for camping. If its too rocky, on unstable surface, too wet or the
grasses are too high it will impact your enjoyment of the experience
- Location of the site
o Be mindful of bush fires, safety of children, flood areas, croc infested rivers, quality of the scenery, land
based wild animals such as buffalo, cattle, dingoes etc
