The river at Otaki Forks campground is a winner. Whether you're into water sports, fishing or just want to have a quick dip, it's truly spectacular. This is a great place for the whole family to enjoy the good old kiwi pastimes of tramping and camping!

Situated at the western entrance to the Tararua Forest Park just over an hours drive outside of Wellington is the Otaki Forks campsite. Surrounded by river terraces and bush, with access to the Otaki river gorge, alongside a large variety of walks for all experience levels, you will be able to lose yourself in a place far removed from the hustle of city life. At only $6 a night for adults $3 for those aged 5-17 and free for under 5 it makes for a wonderful place to visit especially if your inclined towards tramping and walks in nature. Prices per night 18 & up - $6 5-17 - $3 Under 5yrs free
