Camping in New Zealand


For many New Zealanders, camping trips with family and friends have always been a holiday tradition - a favourite way to "get away from it all" over the long summer break and extended weekends throughout the year.

It's with good reason. Camping is not just a great way to discover New Zealand, it also allows real independent travel, is safe, affordable and best of all, it's great fun!

 

The best places to go camping in New Zealand


Although New Zealand is a small country, the landscape changes dramatically between each of our regions, each offering unique reasons to go camping. We believe the best campgrounds in New Zealand are those operated by the Department of Conservation - visit www.doc.govt.nz for detailed information.

 

When to go camping in New Zealand


As you would expect, the best time to go camping is during our summer (December - February), but the usual camping season in New Zealand is October to March.
