Dunedin to Te Anau with a caravan or motorhome
Dunedin to Te Anau runs 290 km from Dunedin to Te Anau. With a car and caravan, you're looking at 4 h 50 min behind the wheel. Our map shows it sealed the whole way.
We planned it on Motocamp's own router for a car and caravan and for a motorhome, at the sizes in the table below, so every number here comes from a real plan, not a guess.
The stops: Dunedin · Gore · Lumsden · Te Anau
Is Dunedin to Te Anau OK for a car and caravan?
Yes, on our plan. It gets through for a car and caravan without using a road signed too low, too short or closed to caravans. Here's what to keep an eye on.

Tell Motocamp what you drive, from an enduro bike to a motorhome, and it plans this trip for that vehicle: the roads it fits, the low bridges and closed roads to steer clear of, and places to stay on the way. The maps keep working where there's no signal.
