DESCRIPTION:

This large, open campsite is near the junction of the Bealey and Waimakariri Rivers. It is popular in the summer.

During winter this alpine area may be covered in snow, making access difficult. This is a key site for the annual Kathmandu Coast to Coast event that runs every second Friday and Saturday in February. Avoid this area for camping during that time.

Bookings are required.
