WHERE CAN I CAMP?

HOLIDAY PARKS AND CAMPGROUNDS

Holiday parks and camping grounds provide a wide range of accommodation options, from camping sites through to self-contained motels. They also provide kitchens, laundries, showers and powered sites. They are ideal for an extended stay.

SELF-CONTAINED CAMPING

If you have a certified fully self-contained vehicle (with a toilet, wastewater and rubbish facilities on-board) then there are some opportunities to camp overnight for free on land administered by the Clutha District Council. However, restrictions have been put in place to control the numbers of certified self-contained vehicles and the areas where they can park. This includes the following prohibited areas:• Town centres or residential areas• The foreshore area between Kaka Point and The

Nuggets• Any other public areas where ‘No Camping’ signs

are displayed. In addition, and as a trial over the 2019/20 season, freedom camping is restricted across The Catlins area, apart from a designated camping site in Owaka, located on Inn Street.

WHAT IS A CERTIFIED FULLY SELF-CONTAINED VEHICLE?

Certified fully self-contained means your vehicle meets New Zealand Standard 5464 with toilet, grey water and waste capacity for three days. A current self-contained warrant must be displayed in the window.

CAMPING PROTOCOL
