Wharapapa is pretty sweet, you can camp at the school or stay at Bryces. He's a bit of a cranky bastard, but he has all the info you could need.
Mangaokewa is near there (maybe an hour away) and is a really enjoyable spot. Free camping there and a short walk to some good limestone. It's only been developed in the last few years, but they've gone all out with bolts and tracks and have done an awesome job. |
