Glenfalls Campsite

Glenfalls is a free DOC conservation campsite situated alongside the Mōhaka River in the Hawke's Bay region of New Zealand's North Island.

It lies approximately one hour's drive from both Napier and Taupō via SH 5 (Napier–Taupō Road); from there, turn onto Waitara Road and follow it for 8. 1 km.

Note that the roadside reserve sign is missing, so the entrance can be easy to miss and is currently marked only by two green signposts. The campsite is a basic, riverside area. Fires are not permitted at any time under DOC fire rules.

The site sits in a flood-prone location, and campers should monitor river levels during heavy rain and evacuate if necessary.

The campsite sustained damage during Cyclone Gabrielle, so checking the DOC website for current conditions before visiting is advisable.
