Day 1:

Lake McGregor Campsite 

(Lake McGregor)

This is a low-cost and non-powered campsite. Because it is honour-based, all you need to do is to park your campervan properly, head to a small little hut, take an envelope and write your vehicle number down in two sections. Stuff your exact payment into the envelope and drop it into their letterbox. Tear the other section out and put it on your dashboard. 

NZ$10 per pax

Day 2:

White Horse Hill Camp Site

(Hooker Valley)

This is a non-powered site. Washroom is available for you to washup or you can use your own campervan toilet. Hot shower is available at 2.5km away from this campsite. One of a more popular site because it's nearest to Hooker Valley's hike. So carpark can be limited. Recommended to reach here earlier before night time to secure a parking space.

 

NZ$13 per pax

Day 3:

Twizel Holiday Park

(Twizel)

Once in awhile, it is good to stay in a powered site so that you can charge up all your power banks, laptop and cameras. Other than that, water tank can be topped up, limited wifi given, washer and dryer provided. Definitely price will be higher but still pretty afforable.

 

NZ$20 per pax

Hillview Campsite

We have to special mention this non-powered and seem ordinary campsite. It totally shock us the next day morning when we woke up with pink sky!!! This picture is not even filtered! One of the highlights in our trip!

Day 6:

Te Anau Top 10 Holiday Park

(Te Anau)

 

 

 

Sorry ar. We wanted to show you pictures of our campsites, but we realised we take very little or none of it. So this is a picture of a lone-tree by the lake of Te Anau town. Haha! I mean what's there to take of pictures of carparks right? Campsite means park your car at paid carpark. HAHA!

Day 7:

Gunn Camp

(Fjordland National Park)

 

 

 

Okay this looks like some creepy ghost story. Rest assured, we just have lack of photos for the campsite. Yes, not even any pictures of us drinking inside our campervan because we were knocked out by the exhauting hike this morning. We don't recommend this place if you are not visiting Milford Sound because there are just too many sandflies! Just by visiting the washroom, we get bites all over our feet. Ouch!

 

NZ$20 per pax

Somewhere near the Hot Onsen

 

 

 

I was browsing all over but i couldn't find a picture of our parking area. I remember we parked somewhere near to our onsen and it's not a campsite. Importantly, just do not illegal park or block other vehicles.
