If you are looking for somewhere to stay along the Northland leg of the Te Araroa trail or you have a backyard or a room you are happy to let someone stay in, post a comment here!
12 Old Mill Lane, Ngunguru.
We live one kilometre past Papaka Road on Ngunguru Road.(The Ngunguru Bypass) That is .003% off trail. Position 35deg 37′ 56″S – 174deg 28′ 53″E.Disregard the No Vacancy sigh if you wish to camp. The sign is for the B&B. We always have room for Te Araroa hikers to camp.
We offer camping for koha for trail walkers. Despite what the Topo Maps show, there are no Camp Grounds in Ngunguru. It makes an ideal stop prior to the day walk to Pataua or North to Whananaki. If we are not home camp on the grass patch between the gardens on the right about 20m past the bee hives on the left. You will find a toilet in the bush behind the garden and water at the pump shed by the tanks. Please conserve the rain water. It is all we have.
Pop up to the house and say Hi. We would like to meet you. Good to give us a call first on 022 626 7166.
The Ngunguru Connection – One of the easiest, fastest way to the Mackerel Forest Track is to hitch from our place as opposed to crossing the Ngunguru River in Ngunguru (New route as of 2016 season) and road walking the nine kilometres to the Mackerel Forest track. (Little traffic on Ngunguru Ford Road from Nikau Bay.)
Cheers from Hilton and Melva – Safe hiking.Also visit our Ngunguru Advice page.
Cheers, HiltonI live in a house at 377 Cove Road Waipu. Plenty of room to camp here and use the shower if need be. Cheers
Sheryl’s place is 228d Waikare valley road, turn right at red letterbox for approximately 100m, cross the river, third house on the right about 500m.
This is our home with plenty of space for your tent, a caravan available if wet, a verandah with gas cooker, plenty of time to relax and rest.
Hidden treasures everywhere, something for everyone, welcome.
If you’re passing through Mangawhai Heads – we have a holiday bach right on the trail near the middle of town, and if we’re around (more likely on weekends) you’re welcome to camp on our back lawn for no charge. You can message me on Facebook (Henry Barfoot) or text 021 2743 679 to check out your dates
Hello! I’m heading today to kerikeri! I’ll arrive late and I was trying to ask someone to camp in their backyard. But maybe it will be too late. Does anyone knows a place I could camp for the night?
Thank you! Di!
Hello There. We live on the Mangamuka Tramping Track just before you enter the scenic Raetea Forest. We offer camping in our garden and a hot shower $10.
