Lake Ruataniwha Freedom Camp is on the outskirts of Twizel. It's a nice freedom camp with good views of the lake. I stayed two nights here when I was travelling from Tekapo down to Queenstown. Certified self-contained vehicles only.
Lake Ruataniwha is a popular lake for rowing, jet skis and water skiing. Twizel is in the Mackenzie District. A short distance from this freedom camp is the Ohau A power station.
Freedom camps are sections of land that certified self contained vehicles are allowed to stay the night on for free. They're great for stop-overs for a night or two, but you need to bring your own water and take away all your grey water, rubbish and black water. Certified self-contained vehicles are camping vehicles with fixed (built-in) toilets and showers. Vans without proper fixed toilets in them will be fined $200 if the driver is caught staying here.
A "Freedom Camp" is the New Zealand term for what Europeans call "Wild Camping" and Australians call "Free Camping". It means you can park there for the night without having to pay a nightly fee, so it is free to stay.
