A true kiwi camp since 1955
In the late 1850's, William Dansey extensively explored the rugged mountains inland from Oamaru, including a passthrough the hills from the Waitaki Valley to Ranfurly and CentralOtago. Today, Dansey's Pass is best known for the Dansey's Pass Holiday Park, a peaceful rural camping ground nestled beside the Maerewhenua River. This is the ideal spot for long hot sunny days by the river and peaceful walks among slate-limestone hills and native bush.
