New Zealand weather is changeable, and the surrounding ocean keeps both summer heat and winter frost moderate. Traffic drives on the left across New Zealand, and hire cars are the usual way to travel on the larger islands. English is the main language and te reo Māori is also official, so Māori place names are used throughout the country.
Polynesian settlers reached New Zealand around the thirteenth century, and British colonisation followed from 1840. The site suits tent-based stays in a bush landscape rather than a town setting. Campers should pack for rain and cool nights given the changeable weather.
