Driving around the Cascade Creek DOC Campsite off SH94, the Milford Sound Road, in the Fiordland National Park, in the Southland region, on the South Coast of New Zealand's South Island.

This is a scenic campsite in northern Fiordland with amazing views of the Eglinton Valley. Cascade Creek DOC Campsite is close to the Eglinton and Cascade rivers to fly fish in. The Lake Gunn Nature Walk also starts here, or explore nearby short walks.

Cascade Creek DOC Campsite is a large sheltered campsite suitable for larger vehicles. There are many different areas to park on and call your own, and a large turning bay is at the end of the gravel road. There are trees and a shelter, with a picnic table, fire pits and a toilet.

This place is great for fishing, swimming, BBQ, and walking. The Lake Gunn Nature Walk starts from here. It is a flat, easy, 45 min return walk from the campsite to the edge of Lake Gunn.
