The journey starts at the end of Ball Road – just north of Pātea. The road is unsealed and not for the faint hearted, but you will be rewarded by the atmosphere of this special place. Don’t miss out on the excellent bushwalks, hot showers, boat ramp to make enjoying those water activities on New Zealand’s longest manmade lake even easier! Get back to nature with only unpowered sites available. Bookings are not necessary.
