Off-road Caravans with Independence and Comfort to go anywhere
Kimberley’s social purpose is embedding eco-friendly technology in RV’s that is easy and practical to use.
We are 100% passionate about creating well-engineered products that serve both you and the environment.
The Kimberley Karavan, a lightweight folding off road caravan that can go anywhere. Kimberley Karavans are unique with their internal shower and toilet, comfortable internal seating and luxury finishes. There is 2.2m of head clearance. Yet they are no wider than a 4WD so can travel absolutely anywhere!
The Kimberley Karavan It is designed to be BOTH self contained and "off-road". One feature that makes this Australian off-road caravan unique is the design of the low drag fibreglass sides and roof with such a low travelling profile. The benefit of this fuel saving is not the saving in fuel cost, but the ADDED RANGE from the standard tanks in regular 4WDs. This ADDED RANGE is so important for you to "go anywhere"!
Kimberley are the only Brand with 5 Year Warranty on the Chassis and Suspension Arms... and this warranty transfers to second buyers in the 5 years! We can offer this as we make it in Ballina, Australia.
Service and customer support is equally important. Kimberley has a Dealer network in 6 States Australia wide, a service network extending to remote areas and a dedicated support staff in Ballina NSW.
Great Australian designs result in both the lightest AND the most compact off-road caravan
that is NOT a vinyl sided pop top for storage!
