One of the highlights of Camden Park Station tours is the traditional smoko gathering. Guests enjoy billy tea and homemade treats while learning about station life directly from those who live it every day. It's simple, honest, and deeply Australian.
Smoko often takes place near historic landmarks on the property, including the old shearing shed and the private ballroom built in 1927 from Jarrah timber. This relaxed setting encourages conversation and laughter, making it a favourite for many visitors over 50.
During “Yarns from Camden Park Station,” guests gather to hear real accounts of life on the land. Stories of drought, cattle work and family legacy are shared with warmth and honesty by those who live it every day.
