Waikoko Campsite

Waikoko Campsite is a free Department of Conservation campsite located in Kaimanawa Forest Park in New Zealand's Central North Island.

To reach it from Tūrangi, head south on SH1 for 15 km, turn onto Kaimanawa Road, and follow signs over a bridge, with the final stretch on gravel. Fires are permitted in designated fireplaces when no fire ban is in effect. Horses are not allowed at this site.

The nearby river is habitat for the endangered blue duck (whio), and visitors may spot one around dawn or dusk.
