Albert Town Campground is a great spot right beside the Clutha & Hawea Rivers and all the bike tracks, including the very popular Deans Bank Track. There is also world class fly fishing right here at the Outlet. Please check the Fish and Game website for licence requirements and season dates.

The campground has basic facilities with flush toilets and running water. No bookings are taken for this site, you just pick your spot and pay on arrival for your camping fees. We accept cash and card payments.

Fees are:

$10 per adult, $5 per child on the Clutha river side of the campground

$7 per adult, $3.50 per child on the Hawea river side of the campground

This is an affordable option, whilst still only being a 10 minute drive into the centre of Wanaka. Well-behaved dogs are allowed to stay at this campground.

Albert Town itself is well serviced by a Four Square supermarket, Albert Town Fish Co. restaurant, Fish and Chip Takeaway and the Prince Albert pub. Additionally, there is the Double Black cafe and Pembroke Patisserie to tickle your taste buds. Hook also offers you the chance to catch your own salmon and have it cooked on site as well as offering delicious snacks and wine in beautiful surroundings.
