NSW Ski Gardens

Wisemans Ferry

NSW Ski Gardens is a riverside camping and recreation area located just 1.2 km from the township of Wisemans Ferry, New South Wales. Owned and operated by the NSW Water Ski Federation, it offers a rustic yet well-equipped setting for water sports enthusiasts, campers, and families seeking a relaxed getaway along the Hawkesbury River.

Accommodation & Facilities

NSW Ski Gardens provides a variety of accommodation options:

  • Cabins: Accommodations that sleep up to six people, featuring cooking facilities, BBQs, and shaded verandahs. Note that guests need to bring their own linen and towels.
  • Campsites: Both powered and unpowered sites are available, many situated directly on the riverbank, suitable for tents, caravans, and camper trailers.

Facilities include clean amenities blocks, a wide boat ramp, shaded picnic areas, BBQs, and a weekend kiosk offering ice, hot food, ice creams, and drinks. There is a shop/office onsite.

Activities & Atmosphere

As a hub for water skiing, the park is particularly lively from October to April, especially on weekends when the river buzzes with activity. While this makes it ideal for water sports enthusiasts, those seeking tranquility might prefer weekday visits. Beyond water skiing, visitors can enjoy fishing, cycling, and exploring nearby attractions like the Convict Trail and Tobruk Sydney.

Pet-Friendly Policy

NSW Ski Gardens welcomes pets, allowing guests to bring their furry companions along for the adventure.

Whether you're into water skiing, fishing, or simply relaxing by the river, NSW Ski Gardens offers a charming and convenient spot to enjoy the natural beauty of the Hawkesbury region.

Be aware it can get noisy with ski boats on the river, plus loud noise from a resort nightclub up the river. Sound carries at night. Otherwise, a lovely spot.
