Information

Arm River Outdoor Education Centre is managed by the Tasmanian Parks & Wildlife Service and is often referred to as the Arm River Camp by locals. The camp is located approximately 850 metres up Maggs Road.
The Arm River OE Centre was originally an old Forestry and Hydro complex. Please note that it has very basic facilities. The camp has toilets and showers and a very small basic kitchen as well as an outdoor barbeque. It also has a communal area plus a classroom for presentations.
It is predominantly used for student group outdoor education training. Accommodation is in dormitory style cabins.
The public are welcome to enter the grounds but only to park at the trailhead of walking tracks to Arm River Falls.
