Manawatu-Whanganui offers some of the North Island's most varied camping, from riverside clearings along the Whanganui to bush-fringed spots near the Ruahine and Kaimanawa ranges. Expect a mix of remote fords, forest sites and open reserves, with many campsites suited to self-sufficient overlanders. It's a region where you can stay close to water, farmland or deep backcountry.
