Embandond. Rlly terrible campsite, looks like it hasn’t seen any matenence in years. The grass is so overgrown there wouldn’t be anywhere to camp anyways. Really desmil and sad. I moved on and decided to find somewhere else as this place was rlly poor and sketchy.. :(

The outhouse is located in the middle of the woods, about 200 meters from the campsite, and you have to cross a small river to get there (the path is paved, but the water still flows across). We had very few sandflies. Locals were also there, playing music and making a fire (it was a Friday, so that was probably the reason). Overall, it was perfectly fine for one night. Hiking was also possible from there. The downside: no cell service.

We arrived late a night and were completely alone! Nice campsite! Lots of sandflies - we didn't spend much time outside..

Be careful, the barrier was closed with a padlock and it was indicated closed for the winter, so we had to go much further to Okaihau.

Wanted to stay there for the night. Apart from the fact that you have to walk around 200m to the toilets on that path are a lot of holes filled with water and also a river with a concrete path, but 10cm under water…

The restrooms are on the other side of the river; you can't drive over them, and in heavy rain, you can't walk over them either. The campground was pretty wet and muddy; you couldn't drive on it. We parked in the roundabout at the entrance, where there was gravel and rocks. No cell reception.

Fredelig, flott for en rolig natt stopper over - stjernene var utrolig som det føles som du er i midten av en jungel. Men vær advart hvis det har regnet i de siste dagene (eller kanskje bare i høst / vinter) du kan ikke krysse elven til toalettet. Du kan fortsatt parkere på gresset nær inngangen, det var mye ledig plass.

Så mange mygg i høst, vi dro.

Fantastisk landskap. Det er et tegn som sier at fasilitetene er stengt (du kan fortsatt komme til toalettet til fots, men du trenger å krysse en elv, er litt glatt, men det er ok).

Vakker skoglig sted med tonnevis av plass. Anklene ble spist levende av bugs, anbefaler sokker / støvler. IKKE kjøre bilen din over elven til toalettet som det er en massiv, uunngåelig pothole på den andre siden. Du må gå over betongplaten, gjennom vannet (ca. 6" dyp mest).
