Whether you’re freedom camping or staying at established campgrounds, Aotearoa – New Zealand has it all.
It’s easy to find incredible places to spend the night from beachfront spots and lakeside clearings to sites tucked beneath one of our stunning maunga (mountains). A good approach is to mix it up: spend a few nights at paid campgrounds to take care of things like charging your gear and doing laundry, then enjoy the freedom of off-grid camping in nature.
This guide includes a mix of places we’ve stayed ourselves and others we’ve carefully researched or had recommended by fellow travellers. Wherever you go, we hope it helps you find the perfect spot to park up for the night.”
