Hangdog Camp
About
Hangdog Camp in North Island sits at 1900 Takaka Valley Highway in Tākaka 7183, a campsite base from which to explore the surrounding area.
This campsite draws a rating of 4.6 out of 5 from 74 reviews, and its website, http://hangdogcamp.co.nz/, sets out what a stay involves. Tākaka lies away from the main centres, with Auckland, Wellington, Rotorua, Taupo, Hamilton, Tauranga, Napier and New Plymouth all some distance away across the island.
First-time visitors should plan for a quiet rural setting, with the facilities and space that camping on this scale provides. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names appear throughout the country and on road signs.
Seasons run opposite to the northern hemisphere, with summer from December to February and winter from June to August, which shapes when the camp is busiest. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common in the area, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast. Māori culture is central to national life, with marae, haka and the Treaty of Waitangi signed in 1840.
