Information

For most walkers journeying through the Walls of Jerusalem National Park, Wild Dog Creek campsite, perched at the base of King Davids Peak, will be your first camp.

Walls of Jerusalem Trailhead (Fish River CarPark) to Wild Dog Creek – 6.5km, 2-3 hours walk.

The campsite has tent platforms raised up above the ground to protect the fragile vegetation below, and there’s a self-composting toilet about 50 metres further up. There is also water here (boil before use). This a place to relax and enjoy the spectacle of sunset over the lumpy peaks of Howells Bluff and Clumner Bluff to the west talking in Cradle Mountain National Park.

This campsite provides wonderful sunset opportunities. The site can accommodate 19 double-person tents on raised platforms set amongst the alpine vegetation. The platforms vary in size and are spread over three levels, connected by a series of boardwalks and stone walkways.
