Camper trailers in Ballarat.

Goldfields town. Bushland on three sides, The Grampians a clean weekend away, and a Hume run that puts you in the snow country by lunch. The OPUS range is built for the way Ballarat actually camps.

Ballarat · Central Highlands

Built for Central Highlands country.

Ballarat sits at the edge of some of Victoria's best off-road country. Box-ironbark forests in every direction, the Pyrenees, the goldfields tracks that follow the old water-race lines. The OPUS range handles dirt and corrugations without complaint, and the Air Beam set up means you're not still raising poles after dark.

Most Ballarat owners camp self-sufficient. Solar input, big water tanks, the outdoor kitchen out the side, optional shower and toilet on board. Heavy-duty coil suspension and a galvanised chassis underneath, because the only way to wreck a camper out here is to under-build it.

The OPUS Melbourne workshop is 90 minutes east via the M8. Drive in and walk through the full range with the team that builds, services and camps in them.

The trips that earn the camper

Where Ballarat OPUS owners actually go.

A short list of the trips we hear about most often. None of them require an interstate haul.

01

The Grampians (Gariwerd)

Two hours west. Sandstone country, the Wonderland circuit, and free pitches at Mount Stapylton when the wildflowers are out.

02

Wombat State Forest

Forty minutes south. Fern-lined fire trails, dispersed camping, and enough firewood to keep the kids busy.

03

Mount Cole State Forest

An hour west toward Beaufort. Granite outcrops, the Mount Buangor lookout, and the quiet end of the Pyrenees.

04

Enfield State Park

Thirty minutes south. Box-ironbark, quiet creek pitches, and far enough off the highway that you stop hearing trucks.

05

Brisbane Ranges NP

An hour east. Closer-in 4WD weekends, kangaroos at dawn, easy on a tow vehicle that hasn't seen dirt in a while.

06

Daylesford & the spa country

An hour north-east. Easy gravel runs, mineral springs, and a stop in Castlemaine on the way home.

Common questions

Everything you want to know.

Yes. Most Ballarat orders are handed over at the Keysborough workshop with a full handover, or trucked to your address. Quote your postcode in the nav pill at the top of the page for an exact tow-away figure.

The OP4 is the most popular pick around Ballarat — six sleeps, slide-out kitchen and enough storage for The Grampians for a fortnight. Couples and weekenders gravitate to the OP2 for the lighter tow weight. Both run the Air Beam tent so you're set up in minutes when the sun's dropping behind Mount Cole.

That's how most of them get used. Standard solar input, a 100L+ water tank, optional second battery and an outdoor kitchen mean you can sit at a free camp at Mount Cole for a week without finding a powered site.

Galvanised chassis, heavy-duty coil-spring independent suspension, dual shocks per side, off-road tyres on the LITE/OP2/OP4. The campers are tested on real Aussie corrugations, not just civil roads.

Service runs out of the Keysborough workshop or your local OPUS-approved trailer specialist for warranty work. Spares ship out of Melbourne next-day. The team can walk you through the network on the phone or in the showroom.
