Wainora Campsite is a basic DOC conservation campsite situated in Coromandel Forest Park, located along Kauaeranga Valley Road approximately 7 km north of the Kauaeranga Visitor Centre.

It sits beside the Kauaeranga River, with a short path from the campsite leading directly to the water. Access is via gravel road.

The campsite serves as the trailhead for the Cookson Kauri Walk, a well-graded track that crosses the Wainora Stream via bridges and climbs more than 700 steps to reach a massive ancient kauri tree, with views of Table Mountain along the way.

Facilities are basic, with toilet access available on site. The campsite is one of nine campgrounds in the Kauaeranga Valley and can be booked online or through the visitor centre.
