Auckland Council frees up 29 new overnight spots for freedom camping
Freedom campers across Auckland are now freer than ever, as dozens of new overnight sites become available to them. In a two-month pilot starting this week, 29 locations from Wellsford in the north to Pukekohe in the south have been highlighted as safe havens for tourists in campervans and tents to stay overnight.
Auckland Council said the scheme was an effort to combat increasing tensions between freedom campers and locals in Auckland, after a bumper tourism season.
Do you agree? Would you like to see more of fewer freedom camping areas in your neighbourhood?

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
