Camel Group is an Australian camper trailer and caravan manufacturer specialising in off-road and remote-touring builds. The brand's portfolio centres on compact, lightweight designs — the Beachcomber camper trailer has been in production since 2004 and remains one of Australia's most recognisable compact off-road pop-tops. The Bushman Extreme caravan (in production from 2015) targets couples and small teams seeking a heavier-duty, self-contained option for extended outback trips. Both models are built with off-road capability as a core design brief, meaning reinforced chassis, ground clearance, and durable construction rather than luxury fit-out. Camel Group's manufacturing footprint is Australian, and the brand has maintained a loyal following among downsizers, grey nomads, and couples who value go-anywhere capability over size.

Camel Group buyer's guide

Who buys a Camel Group?

Camel Group attracts couples, downsizers, and grey nomads who want to travel remote Australia without towing a large caravan or driving a heavy motorhome. The Beachcomber camper trailer (sleeps 2, 750 kg ATM) suits anyone with a mid-size SUV or 4WD — you can tow it comfortably behind a HiLux, LandCruiser, or Ford Ranger without modification. The Bushman Extreme caravan targets buyers who prefer a fixed caravan but still want genuine off-road ability and a small footprint. Both builds prioritise durability and self-sufficiency on unsealed roads over onsite facilities, making them popular with outback explorers and remote-station visitors. First-time buyers often choose Camel Group because the compact size and light weight mean lower tow-vehicle costs and easier manoeuvring on tight bush tracks.

What to inspect

When viewing a used Camel Group, focus on the off-road wear points. Check the pop-top canvas on the Beachcomber for cracks or UV damage along the fold seams, and test the manual or gas-strut lift mechanism — aged struts may not hold the roof open safely. Inspect the chassis at the drawbar welds and jockey-wheel mount for corrosion or crack signs; light weight means thin materials, so rust spreads fast in damp climates. Look inside for water ingress around window frames and roof edges — sealed panel construction can delaminate if sealant fails. On the Bushman, check suspension bushes for play and inspect the undercarriage for damage from corrugated bush tracks. Test all external seals, hatches, and door hinges for stiffness, and ask the seller for service history — off-road use is harder on these compact units than sealed-road towing.

Value and resale

Sold-price data for Camel Group on VANTURE is limited — no units have sold on the marketplace yet, so we can't draw firm conclusions about second-hand market retention. However, the Beachcomber's 20-year production run and cult following among remote travellers suggest strong longevity in the private market. Compact off-road camper trailers typically depreciate slower than large family caravans because they appeal to a dedicated buyer base willing to travel outback. When considering a used Camel Group, compare pricing against current new-unit costs (if the brand still produces them), and factor in the cost of any canvas, seals, or suspension refreshes. A well-maintained Beachcomber or Bushman often outlives the tow vehicle, making them solid second-hand buys if the chassis and seals are sound.

Frequently asked questions about Camel Group

Where are Camel Group camper trailers and caravans made?

Camel Group camper trailers and caravans are designed and built in Australia. The Beachcomber pop-top and Bushman Extreme caravan are manufactured by an Australian specialist builder focused on off-road and remote-touring layouts. Both builds emphasise durability and self-sufficiency for Australian bush and outback travel, with chassis, seals, and suspension tuned for unsealed roads and harsh climates.

What's the price range for a Camel Group camper trailer or caravan?

VANTURE has no current active listings or sold history for Camel Group yet, so we cannot quote a price band. However, the Beachcomber camper trailer (520 kg tare, 750 kg ATM) is a compact, lightweight pop-top that typically sits in the entry-to-mid-range segment for off-road camper trailers. The Bushman Extreme caravan is positioned higher as a full-sized, self-contained option. To find current pricing, set an alert on VANTURE and we'll notify you when a Camel Group unit is listed.

What Camel Group models are best for remote touring?

Both Camel Group models are purpose-built for remote touring. The Beachcomber (since 2004) is the brand's flagship — a lightweight, 750 kg ATM pop-top camper trailer that sleeps 2 and tows easily behind any 4WD or large SUV. It's ideal for couples who want to explore outback tracks without the weight penalty of a full caravan. The Bushman Extreme caravan (from 2015) is the heavier option for buyers seeking a fixed, self-contained base camp with genuine off-road credentials. Both are designed for rough terrain, remote water sources, and extended trips away from caravan parks.

How does Camel Group hold its value on the second-hand market?

Sold data for Camel Group is limited — no units have sold on VANTURE to date, so we cannot draw a firm resale conclusion from marketplace history. However, the Beachcomber's 20-year production run and strong reputation among outback travellers suggest the brand retains value well in the private market. Compact, durable off-road camper trailers typically hold value better than larger family caravans because the buyer pool is loyal and the use case (remote touring) doesn't fade. A well-maintained Beachcomber or Bushman is likely to sell faster and hold more of its value than a large caravan, especially if the chassis and seals are sound.

What should I check when buying a used Camel Group?

Focus on the seals and canvas. On the Beachcomber pop-top, inspect the fabric for cracks or UV damage along the fold seams, and test the roof-lift mechanism — aged gas struts may not hold safely. Check the frame joints and drawbar welds for corrosion; lightweight chassis rust quickly in damp climates. Look for water ingress around windows and roof edges, and test all external hatches and door hinges. On the Bushman caravan, inspect the suspension bushes for play, check the undercarriage for corrugated-road damage, and examine the wall panels for delamination near windows. Ask for service history — off-road use is harder on compact units than sealed-road towing.

How off-road capable is Camel Group?

Off-road capability is built into every Camel Group model. The Beachcomber camper trailer (750 kg ATM, 520 kg tare) is lightweight enough to tow across corrugated bush tracks without bottoming out, and the low centre of gravity makes it stable on uneven terrain. The Bushman Extreme caravan is designed for serious remote travel — the name signals it's built for genuine outback and rough-track use, not just campground touring. Both models feature reinforced chassis, durable seals and construction, and layouts that prioritise self-sufficiency (water, power, waste) so you're not reliant on facilities. The Beachcomber's 20-year field reputation in Australian deserts and remote stations is the strongest endorsement — if it works for grey nomads tackling the Canning Stock Route, it will handle most Australian off-road travel.

Can a common 4WD or mid-size SUV tow a Camel Group?

Yes. The Beachcomber camper trailer has a 750 kg ATM and 520 kg tare, making it towable by almost any modern mid-size SUV or 4WD — including a Toyota HiLux, Ford Ranger, Isuzu D-Max, or LandCruiser 200 Series without modification. Most of these vehicles have a towing capacity of 2500–3500 kg, so the Beachcomber sits well within safe limits. The Bushman Extreme caravan is heavier and requires confirmation of ATM and tare weights from the seller, but Camel Group's design philosophy favours compact, towable builds over large family caravans. Always check your vehicle's towing capacity (on the compliance plate) before committing, and factor in payload — tow capacity and payload are separate limits — but the Beachcomber is purpose-designed for affordable, everyday 4WD towing.
