Katipo Creek Shelter Campsite

Katipo Creek Shelter Campsite is one of nine Great Walk campsites along the Heaphy Track in Kahurangi National Park, situated in the Nelson/Tasman region of New Zealand's South Island.

It sits roughly two and a half hours from Heaphy Hut campsite and two hours from Scotts Beach campsite. The site offers a grassy tenting area with coastal views. Facilities include water from a tap, a long-drop toilet stocked with toilet paper, and sinks.

Campers may not use hut facilities. During summer, hut wardens patrol nearby huts and can assist campers with track and weather information. The campsite operates year-round and requires advance bookings through the Department of Conservation.
