    Excellent camping ground ...

    My wife and I arrived late in Gore and read the excellent ratings on Google ... the beautiful grass areas fulfilled all expectations ... it’s a very quiet place and the birds can be heard :)

    Great find

    We spent a night here in campervans and loved it. Clean showers with hot hot water. Great walking tracks Excellent gardens. Really interesting children's playground with a flying fox, scrabbling nets etc. Glow worms can sometimes be seen. Much better than Black Gulley,

    Nice break from the roadtrip

    Park is about 7km of the main road. Park is nice spot for a play/ lunch/walk. Walk to lookout (304m) is not easy as brochure states. Its a steep walk in spots and requires good shoes. View is good over plains to the south.

    Easy Trails in the Bush

    The well surfaced and clearly marked short trails from the play area are superb for exploring the ancient native forest . The dense canopy and trees covered with epiphytes are a rare insight into the old NZ.
