North Island ▷ Taranaki ▷ New Plymouth ▷
3.0/5
Beautiful spot, outdoor shower, and nice bathroom.
But as other reviews have said it is a hot spot for some odd locals to come by. Had fireworks go off all night long and guy doing what I assume was meth in the car next to me. Also it’s not clear whether self contained vehicles also have to be in the 6 designated spots so definitely be there early. I got there at 4 and luckily there was one spot left.

4.0/5
Amazing for doing the Tongariro Alpine Crossing.
Right at the pick up for the shuttle, bathrooms, sinks, showers (I think). Just go to the right - don’t go to the left where you have to pay with a kiwi camp card.
