Pinedale Camp

 

In a  stunningly beautiful and secluded setting amongst bush, on the banks of the crystal clear Wakamarina River is Pinedale's spacious camp. Its cabins and camping sites are sheltered by the surrounding trees and hills.

The trout fishing right there is excellent early and late in the season. Guiding services can also be arranged.

Genial hosts Jo and Mal welcome anglers, families and pets, and run a basic camp store.
