Recycling - helps minimise Camping Fee increases
As most of your camping fees go towards refuse removal,
we ask that rubbish be kept to a minimum. Bins will be
provided for both waste and recycling.
Those caught illegally dumping rubbish will be
prosecuted.
Port-a Pottie Stations
Situated at Briars Gully, Te Akatarawa, Waitangi
and Fishermans Bend camp sites.
Do not empty port-a-pottie contents down toilet bowls
as the chemicals destroy the normal operation of camp
septic tanks. Failure to adhere to this may result in camp
closure due to sanitary reasons.
Noise
In consideration to other campers, unnecessary noise and
obscene language will not be tolerated. Noise to be
kept to a minimum between 10.00pm and 7.00am.
Offenders will be removed.

Felling of trees is prohibited. Should limbs require
removal, please advise camp supervisors who will assess and
undertake the work should the situation require it.
