Dogs must be on a leash. Check separate dog restrictions before using nearby tracks.

Official campsite sourceStart with the individual pet policy below. A conditional record can mean prior approval, a designated pitch or restrictions on dates and dog numbers. Ask the operator about your dog before paying; do not assume a pet-friendly cabin policy also applies to camping, or the reverse.
Check the beach, reserve and walking route separately. DOC permits dogs at a campsite only where its dog-on-leash or dog-with-permit designation allows it. A campsite booking does not override wildlife protection or nearby track rules. Unknown pet policies are left out of this selection.
Filter this selectionNo. It means a recorded policy may allow dogs subject to conditions. Read the place guide and get the operator's approval for your dates, dog and accommodation type.
Open the full campsite directory, select Pets considered and a region, then add confirmed facilities such as power or hot showers. All selected conditions must match.
Compare the individual place, not just the category.
