Anchorage Campsite
Anchorage Campsite
Anchorage Campsite is a paid DOC campsite situated within Abel Tasman National Park in the Nelson/Tasman region of New Zealand.
It serves as a popular base along the Abel Tasman Coast Track and is a starting point for the short walk to Cleopatra's Pools, a series of natural rock pools on the Torrent River featuring a moss-lined natural waterslide and clear, cool swimming water.
Advance bookings are required to stay at the campsite, and the DOC Campsite Pass is not accepted here. The site is accessible on foot via the Coast Track, with Marahau being approximately four hours away by trail.
