Do not restrict access to public areas, footpaths or access ways. Self-contained vehicles must clearly display NZS5465:2001 certification. No person may freedom camp for more than 3 nights within 1 kilometre of an area where you have previously freedom camped within the last 4 weeks. Camping is only permitted for those who are fully vaccinated and children under the age of 12 years and 3 months. Those who can’t show proof of vaccination will be asked to move on. This decision will be reviewed regularly as our local ‘traffic light’ status changes. Please be advised our camping compliance officer may request to view your vaccine pass. We welcome responsible campers to the Gisborne Tairāwhiti district and encourage camping at the restricted areas defined in our bylaw. We also encourage the use of commercial and DoC campgrounds. Please be familiar with our Freedom Camping Bylaw 2021 and the 'Kiwi' saying "leave only footprints".
