Just stayed the night, no hay nadie más aquí, noche pacífica escuchando el río. personalmente creo que he obtenido el máximo de este hermoso lugar al volver al puente natural cuando es oscuro para ver los gusanos brillantes ....

Tal vez sea porque fue nuestro primer día completo con nuestra camioneta en NZ. Tal vez sea porque no estamos acostumbrados a subir a una montaña. Tal vez sea porque no nos dimos cuenta de cuánto temprano llegaría a la oscuridad. Pero las zonas de velocidad de 100 km/h en las locas carreteras empinadas locas locas en la oscuridad eran realmente aterradoras. Puso en mente Cool Runnings...”sus huesos no se rompen en un bobsled. No...se rompen...” Una vez que llegamos allí, hermosa. estrellas, gusanos brillantes!

Era tranquilo por la noche y el baño estaba limpio con papel higiénico.Había otras dos furgonetas allí.No había luces, por lo que era muy oscuro para mirar las estrellas.

Very good quiet campsite and great to see the light bulbs in the evenings... but only 4g therefore bad cell phone reception + the toilet leaves to be desired

Very quiet spot off the side of the road, with an easy walk which is lit up at night with glow worms. One long drop toilet, no sink. Some camping tables. Only 1 other van here with me at the end of May. Quiet, not much road traffic/noise either. Stars were out in force, can see the Milky Way. Quite cold at night so dress warm! Weak phone signal.

Very quiet spot, you should to do the walk at the night, for see a lot of glowworm Phone signal ok Lot of space

A good and quiet spot to spend a night watching the fireflies. Don't hesitate to take the slightly longer route at night, crossing the first two bridges. After that, you can see the fireflies from almost anywhere. The viewpoint at the very top is the most fascinating.

I echo what everybody else is saying. You should stay here for the night to enjoy the fantastic glow worms experience after the sunset. Quiet and chilly night, had one of the best sleeps of the trip. Avoid the toilet at all cost!

We stayed at the Mangapo Nature Bridge last night and really enjoyed it. The parking area isn’t very large, but there was plenty of space for everyone. It’s a very quiet spot with almost no traffic, and we even saw glowwurms. If you walk down the path to the bridge in the dark, you’ll definitely find some. The place is breathtaking both during the day and at night.

It’s a beautiful and peaceful place to stay, though I’m still unsure about how legal it is to camp here. There’s a no-tent symbol on the sign, and usually if self-contained vehicles are allowed there’s a blue label, which is missing. The area itself is lovely and quiet, with a gorgeous walk to the Natural Bridge and hundreds of glowworms at night that are absolutely breathtaking. Unfortunately, the toilet is genuinely terrible, really unpleasant. I’d estimate there’s space for around 10 cars.
