About

In South Island, KiwiCamp is a local business. State Highway 1, Riverlands 3535, Nueva Zelanda places the campsite beside the main highway corridor through the top of the South Island.

KiwiCamp operates as a campsite, with pitches set along State Highway 1 at Riverlands. The site keeps long hours, opening Mo-Su 06:00-02:00, so arrivals and departures run late into the night. First-time visitors should expect a highway-side stop rather than a remote wilderness camp, with five photos showing the grounds. Across 120 reviews the campsite averages 3.8 out of 5. Travellers coming from Christchurch, Nelson, Blenheim, Kaikoura, Dunedin, Queenstown, Wanaka or Te Anau can reach it via the state highway network.

New Zealand sits on the boundary of the Pacific and Australian tectonic plates, so small earthquakes are a common occurrence. Cooking here features lamb, dairy and seafood, including green-lipped mussels, bluff oysters and crayfish. Polynesian settlers reached New Zealand around the thirteenth century, and British colonisation followed from 1840. Tūī, kererū and other native birds are common, and dolphins, fur seals and seabirds are seen around the coast.
