Routeburn Flats campsite | Routeburn Track, Mt Aspiring National Park

Routeburn Flats campsite is a hugely popular summer campsite due to the proximity to Queenstown and the mostly flat walk in.

Why not camp here? It gets sun much of the day, there’s a great outlook, the river to have a splash around just in front, and even mostly flat campsites. A lot to like.
