Great place for a stop over. Well off the main road (unlike how it is shown on the map) - quiet, no highway noise. There was only one other overnight camper. Plenty of shade. Unfortunately, no open flames allowed, so no campfire. Nice 15-min walking loop with native NZ trees labeled, so you can learn your Rimu from your Rata :) . Nearby stream also offers a nice setting. Flushable bathrooms are basic, but better than many others at free camp sites. Can’t beat it for $2.

You’ll be rolling on the tyre tracks of many campers before you. Since 1929 this place has been an oasis for those pilgrims exploring Aotearoa’s undulating hills. The flat grass and simple loo make for a perfect rest spot. The heritage of the untouched native bush around the site is evidenced by the bird song that greets you just as the sun begins to crest, and the mysterious rustles during the night. Sleep well and enjoy.

Great peaceful place to park up. Was a old caravan sitting there in a un used state. Don't know if council are aware of it

We did an overnight stop on our way south. Clean toilets and great value.

Beautiful, quiet and spacious. What a gem!

Such a nice peaceful spot! Flush toilets too. Spots can get shady in the trees but plenty of sun too.

Amazing quiet spot just for 2 $ donation, clean toilet but no drinking water. One of my favorite spots.

Gorgeous camp spot for only $2! Flushing toilets, non portable water, well maintained grounds and picnic tables. Only about 4 other vans when we stayed, heaps of room here. Would highly recommend! Way better than any doc sites we've stayed at and so much cheaper!

just arrived in the dark. easy to find. two other campers here. cosy. clean basic toilet. perfect for an overnight stay.

I love Anzac park.. Has a nice steam that's great for cooling off in and the nature walks are beautiful. It quiet and relaxing. My fav spot to hide away.
