Campervan and Motorhome Rental in Christchurch

Christchurch is located on the east side of New Zealand's South Island. Campervan or motorhome rental in Christchurch is an excellent way to explore the rugged and unspoiled surrounding area.

You can easily access the area's amazing parks, coasts, and wilderness in a campervan or motorhome, making it a holiday you'll never forget.

Christchurch National Parks

Campervan and motorhome hire in Christchurch means you are close to some of New Zealand's most spectacular national parks.

Arthur's Pass National Park is just a short campervan ride from Christchurch. It's an incredible mountainous region with breathtaking views. Even just the drive to get there makes it worthwhile.

Drift further west, and you can uncover the beauty of Paparoa National Park. If limestone cliffs, coastal forests, and gorgeous coastlines are for you, you'll find them all here. On top of that, you can also see the iconic and otherworldly pancake-stacked coastal formations.

To the south, you can find the Aoraki/Mount Cook National Park. The park is full of alpine splendour, so striking that Peter Jackson famously used it in filming The Lord of the Rings. So you might recognize some of it when you're there.

Christchurch Coastline, Lakes, and Rivers

Motorhome and campervan rental in Christchurch put you close to many of the South Islands' most beautiful coastlines, lakes, and rivers.

Christchurch is located on Pegasus Bay, which is famous for dolphins and whales. However, the coastline to the south is perfect for a campervan or motorhome itinerary that takes in many of the South Islands' coastal towns and cities.

The Rakaia river in the Canterbury Plains is worth a trip. The gorge has many great activities, like jet boats, swimming, and fishing. The Clyde river, further into the South Island's mountainous centre, is an excellent place for canoeing, cruises, and incredible wildlife.

Christchurch is also famous for its lakes. You can reach Lake Roto Kohatu, Lake Pearson, and Lake Ellesmere with a campervan or motorhome hire. Each lake blends spectacular sites with fun water-based activities that the whole family can enjoy.
