Tasmania caravan stays
Tasmania is compact on a map but its touring roads invite slower travel. This guide starts with Cradle Mountain, where the operator publishes guest EV charging and caravan sites, then adds east-coast and northern caravan parks that list an EV charging point. Check the exact equipment and access with each property; the presence of a charging-point listing does not tell you the plug, power, cost or whether it can be reserved.
Route planning
A practical itinerary can use a northern base, a Cradle Mountain stay and an east-coast stop, with enough time between regions for winding roads and weather changes. Use the Discover Tasmania EV guide to locate network options and real-time availability, then set the vehicle navigation to the actual campground address.
Keep a reserve before driving into the Cradle Mountain area. Do not assume a charger shown in a hotel or visitor-centre listing is available to a campground guest; call the operator to confirm access and the parking layout.
Stay shortlist
Discovery Resorts – Cradle Mountain confirms an EV station for in-house guests and complimentary two-hour sessions by booking; it also states that its Village cabins have an external 15-amp outlet. Do not read that as approval to charge from a caravan site. Discover Tasmania lists EV charging points at Bicheno East Coast Holiday Park and Quamby Corner Caravan Park, but connector details and terms should be verified with the parks directly.
Public network
Discover Tasmania lists Chargefox, Evie, Electric Highway Tasmania, Electrona, BP Pulse and NRMA among the networks operating on the island. Its travel guide recommends checking live availability and planning before remote-area drives. Use those operator maps to choose a compatible station, then keep a second town or network as a backup.
Safety
A caravan powered site is not a general-purpose EV charger. Follow the park's safety rules, use a dedicated station and do not connect through extension leads or power boards. When a park only says 'EV charging point', contact reception for its current charger type, access, fee and booking requirements before relying on it.

Common questions
Discovery says in-house guests can book a complimentary two-hour charging session. Confirm the exact process and connector with the park; a separate 15-amp outlet is described for Village cabins, not as a blanket permission for caravan-site charging.
No. Each park sets its own access rules. Call ahead to confirm whether the charge point is operating, what plug it uses, whether it is guest-only and whether the site can be reserved.
