Lawrence Campsite
Lawrence Campsite
Lawrence Campsite is a basic DOC campsite set in Kaweka Forest Park, Hawke's Bay, on the Tutaekuri River. Located approximately 1. 5 hours west of Napier at the end of Lawrence Road, it offers a pleasant, quiet setting surrounded by pine trees.
The final stretch of road is rough and best suited to 4WD vehicles, which helps keep the site uncrowded. The campsite has five non-powered tent sites and facilities including non-flush toilets, a cooking shelter, and water sourced from the stream.
Fires are not permitted at any time, and dogs are not allowed. There is no booking required — it operates on a first-come, first-served basis.
Activities in the area include fishing, swimming, canoeing, and hunting on the Tutaekuri River, as well as day and overnight walks departing from the camp. Note that logging trucks use Lawrence Road, so drivers should travel slowly and keep left.
