## What is Camping Map NZ?

KiwiCamping is the New Zealand camping map and trip planner built for the road. Explore more than 4,500 useful places, build a real driving itinerary, and keep the details you need close when reception disappears.

EXPLORE NEW ZEALAND

Find campsites, DOC huts, freedom camping areas, holiday parks, accommodation, dump stations, day-use areas and practical stops across the country. Search by name, town, price or facilities, then filter for the things that matter to your trip: water, toilets, showers, power, dogs, vehicle access, fees and more.

Open a place to check facilities, access notes, restrictions, fees, opening information, photos, alerts and weather for the actual location. Get directions with Apple Maps or Google Maps and inspect the surrounding area before arrival.

PLAN THE WHOLE TRIP

Create a trip with dates, a cover, notes and an ordered list of stops. KiwiCamping builds the driving route between them and shows the distance and expected travel time for each leg and for the whole journey.

Add arrival dates, check the forecast for upcoming stops, reorder the route, mark places visited and discover useful places near the next stop. Keep a trip checklist, add your own tasks and packing items, share the itinerary, and sync the plan to Calendar.

COLLECTIONS AND SMART LISTS

Like, star, save or mark any place as visited or want to visit. Smart lists keep those actions organised automatically. Create custom collections for each region or journey, with your own name, icon, colour, cover photo and notes, then sort saved places by name, rating or popularity.

ROAD-TRIP AND CAMPING GUIDES

Go beyond pins on a map with 21 detailed road-trip routes and 50 practical guides. Learn how DOC campsites and huts work, understand freedom camping rules, plan realistic driving days, compare costs, prepare for local weather and road conditions, and follow source links when rules or access can change.

USEFUL WHEN THE SIGNAL ISN'T

The New Zealand place directory is stored on your phone, so campsite, hut and service information remains available beyond the last bar of reception. Previously viewed imagery is cached when available. Live map imagery, directions, forecasts, availability and external links can still require a connection.

MADE FOR CAMPING IN NEW ZEALAND

KiwiCamping brings the map, campsite research, route planning, saved places and practical local knowledge into one focused app. Whether you are travelling by campervan, motorhome, car or tent, it helps you decide where to stay and what comes next.

Some place details, planning tools and guides require the KiwiCamping Pass. Availability, restrictions, fees, weather and road conditions can change; confirm critical information with the official source before travelling.
