• Momorangi and Aussie Bay DOC Camps

    30 Jun, New Zealand ⋅ ☀️ 7 °C

    Talk about being in paradise! This place is fabulous. The Momorangi camp is outstanding! It's a bit wet up top so only the waterfront sites are open....oh dear..... what a shame! These flat sites offer power, and a grey waste outlet and views to die for! The ablution blocks are top notch, spotlessly clean. There is a full rubbish service. The walking track to Grove Arm via Aussie Bay had a fairly big slip close to Momorangi Bay so we didn't get far. However the track up the back of the camp is beautiful. Doesn't take long to do the loop but it's well worth it. There's glow worms to be seen at night. We spent two lovely days there and will definitely be back. Our DOC pass meant that we paid the princely sum of six dollars a night for power. We're now at Aussie Bay, which is basically two parking areas with a basic loo and fabulous views. We've stayed here on a previous visit to this area. We walked through to Grove Bay today and were stunned by the beauty. Fabulous! We walked back towards Momorangi and almost got there but the DOC workers had the last part of the track closed to clear the slips. This is a gorgeous part of the planet. We'll be back for sure.Baca lagi
