Twizel is the main town in the MacKenzie District and the perfect place to base yourself for exploring Mt Cook National Park, Lake Ruataniwha, and cycling the Alps 2 Ocean Cycle Trail. Twizel holiday parks and campsites offer an affordable accommodation option for couples, groups and families whilst staying in this beautiful part of the country. Sleep under the stars, relax in your motorhome or hire a cabin.
Camping is a favourite activity in New Zealand, with generally mild weather conditions and good onsite facilities. Be aware that campsites may only offer basic facilities such as long-drop toilets and running water, but holiday parks generally offer more advanced facilities such as powered tent sites, campervan parks, cabins, motel units with ensuite, communal ablution blocks with flushing toilets and showers, and kitchen facilities.
