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.

Location and attractions:

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 license requirements and season dates.

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.
