Take a quick video tour of Monowai campsite and campground. The site is located close to Blackmount and Wairaki and is right on the shores of Lake Monowai.
Lake Monowai Review
Our campsite at Lake Monowai was definitely more heavily wooded than other spots we've stayed making for a cooler and more sun shaded camping experience. There was a distinct lack of spots for campervans (even unpowered minivans). The CamperMate app lists the site as having 5 unpowered sites, which isn't too far off from the truth. Even visiting in off season it was packed by sundown with vehicles.
We loved that this site was right on the lake and it made it convenient for swimming, a quick bath, or washing dishes. When visited in March the sandflies weren't too bad but the mosquitos were out for blood. Since campfires are allowed we made a small one so that the smoke would chase some of the bugs away.
All in all, not our favorite site to have stayed at but a unique experience. If you're an angler or have a boat this would be an amazing campsite to be based out of.
