This includes the freedom camping areas at Hipapatua / Reid’s Farm Recreation Reserve, Whakamaru Domain and Mangakino Recreation Reserve. Signs are now being erected at the entrances to these sites.
Council has made this decision to minimise the risks of COVID-19 and help support local camping grounds, said Mayor David Trewavas.
“Visitors are a key part of our economy here in Taupo and we’re wanting to encourage any freedom campers visiting our district to support one of our local camping grounds.
“Not only will it help lessen any economic impacts, but they are also better equipped to support the health and safety of our visitors, with hot water and washing facilities on hand.
The local camping grounds you can head to are:
Great Lake Holiday Park – 406 Acacia Bay Road, Taupō
Taupo TOP 10 Holiday Park - 16 Rangatira Street, Taupō
Lake Taupo Holiday Resort - 41 Centennial Drive, Taupō
Taupo Holiday Park - State Highway 5, Hilltop, Taupō
