Campers and trampers should consider that rivers and streams could rise, the spokeswoman said. “We want people to be prepared before they head out camping, so they don’t end up becoming trapped by rising waters. “Make sure you pick a spot that you can easily leave from should waterways begin to rapidly rise. “Let someone know where you are going and how long for and take appropriate gear, clothing and food.” MetService meteorologist Peter Little rain was expected to be heaviest on Saturday. “It does look like there is going to be unsettled weather for parts of the South Island, particularly Otago which suffers from flooding more easily . it s definitely prudent advice from police.”

Since mid-October, around 12,000 vehicles have passed through Land Information New Zealand’s (LINZ) four popular lakefront campsites - Lowburn, Bendigo, Jacksons Inlet and Champagne Gully.
Last season (between October 2019 and April 2020), around 60,000 vehicles went through the sites.
LINZ Land and Property Manager April Hussey says visitor numbers were slightly down on last year, due to a drop in international visitors. However, there has been a small increase at the Jacksons Inlet campsite. We’re happy Kiwis are stopping by to enjoy these great spots for camping, as a rest stop, or to simply take in the view, and using them responsibly.
