Responsible camping
DOC Visitor Centre staff can advise where
you can freedom camp safely and responsibly
in New Zealand and where local camping
restrictions apply. New Zealand’s Freedom
Camping Act 2011 means visitors who ignore
good camping practices and/or camp in the
wrong places can receive an instant fine of $200.
You could get a $200 instant fine by:
h
Freedom camping overnight where there
is a no camping sign.
h
Freedom camping overnight where there is
a self-contained sign and you are not using
an approved NZ Standard self-contained
vehicle.
h
Depositing waste while freedom camping.

Serviced campsites
$15* adult; $7.50 child
Serviced campsites have a wide range of facilities and services.
Flush toilets, tap water, kitchen/cooking bench, hot showers, rubbish
collection and road access for all types of vehicles. Laundry facilities,
BBQs, fireplaces, cookers and picnic tables may be provided.
Scenic campsites
$10* adult; $5 child
These campsites are in high use locations and have a more limited
range of facilities and services than Serviced campsites. Toilets,
tap water supply and vehicle or boat access. Wood BBQs and
fireplaces, cold showers, picnic tables, a cooking shelter and
rubbish bins may be provided.
Standard campsites
$6* adult; $3 child
These campsites have toilets (usually composting or pit), water
supply (tap, stream, or lake) and vehicle or boat access. Wood
BBQs and fireplaces, cold showers, picnic tables, a cooking
shelter and rubbish bins may be provided.
Backcountry campsites
$6* adult; $3 child
Backcountry campsites have toilets and a water supply, which may
be from a stream. Picnic tables, cooking shelters and fireplaces
may be provided.
Basic campsites
no charge
Age categories for fees:
Adult:
Child:
Infants:
18+ years
5–17 years
0–4 years,
no charge.
These have very limited facilities
so campers need to be fully self-
sufficient. Basic toilets and water
may be from a tank, stream or lake.
* Some pricing exceptions apply—check individual campsite listings.
Booking and paying fees
Bookings are required for all Serviced campsites and for some
Scenic and Standard campsites in peak season (usually 1 October
– 30 April). Most bookings can be made at
booking.doc.govt.nz
or
at a DOC Visitor Centre.
Where bookings are not required, pay fees via
the self-registration system at the campsite,
or at a Visitor Centre. These campsites
operate on a first come, first served basis.
Fees are generally charged per person per
night, and reflect the level of facilities and
services provided. Powered sites are $3 extra
per person. DOC rangers patrol camping
areas and will check that fees have been paid.

Be a careful camper and practise ‘no trace’ camping
Choose your campsite carefully; set up your camp on firm,
high or sandy ground. Camp only in designated areas.
Be tidy and always leave campsites clean. Take your rubbish
with you if bins are not provided.
Use a cooker, fireplace or BBQ. Light fires only where allowed,
collect dead wood and keep the fire small. Soak the fire with
water before you go.
Detergents, soap and toothpaste can harm aquatic and marine
life. Use biodegradable products and wash in a container well
away from water sources.
Always use toilets provided.
Campgrounds are social places but everyone needs some
rest and relaxation. Please respect the rights of others for
quiet enjoyment of the outdoors. Limit generator use (where
permitted) between 9 pm and 8 am.
Pay your fees to help keep campsites available in the future.
Always thoroughly clean your
equipment before and after trips to
minimise the spread of weeds and
diseases.
Protect native plants and animals.

Campsites and dogs
Dogs are
not permitted
at Conservation Campsites unless the
‘dogs permitted’ or ‘dogs on a leash’ symbol is present.
With most campsites located in or near protected areas it
is important to keep your dog under control. Even the most
obedient dog has the potential to kill wildlife.
Dog owners who take their dogs into dog-prohibited campsites
or controlled areas without a permit, or breach the conditions of
their permit, are liable to prosecution. Controlling your dog also
respects other people’s rights to use and enjoy the outdoors.
Visit
doc.govt.nz/dogcampsites
for further information.
Beware of thieves
Remember to lock your vehicle and take your valuables with you.
Gravel roads and insurance
If you are driving a rental vehicle, remember to check whether you
are insured when driving on unsealed roads.
