Wallgrove Army Base was located west of Sydney in New South Wales. Wallgrove Army Camp was on the site of the now defunct amusement park called Australia's Wonderland. The site was recently sold to build more industrial sites. Eastern Creek Raceway and the M5 Freeway have also been built on or near the site.

Wallgrove Airfield is located 1.5 miles north east at Doonside near Wallgrove Army Base.
