"NO FREEDOM CAMPING ZONE" sign, Makarora. Wilkin River Jets starts Gillespie Pass Circuit, Mount Aspiring NP, New Zealand.

Regarding the "NO FREEDOM CAMPING ZONE" sign: Freedom camping in New Zealand is when you camp on public land that isn't a recognized camping ground. You can only camp in designated Freedom Camping Zones if you are certified self-contained. From Makarora, Wilkin River Jets carried us 3km via jetboat up the Makarora River to Young River confluence to begin tramping the Gillespie Pass Circuit, in Mount Aspiring National Park, Southern Alps, Otago region, South Island of New Zealand. After 4 days, they picked us up at Kerin Forks on Wilkin River.
