Black Rock Campsite

Black Rock Campsite is a basic DOC-managed campsite located in the Queen Charlotte Sound/Tōtaranui area of the Marlborough region on New Zealand's South Island.

It sits along the Queen Charlotte Track and is accessible by walking or mountain biking only — no vehicle access.

Advance bookings are strongly recommended, particularly for the peak summer period from 1 December to 28 February and over public holiday weekends.

Note that mountain biking is not permitted on the track section between Meretoto/Ship Cove and Kenepuru Saddle during that same peak period.
