Locals are raising eyebrows at the camping areas selected within a proposed freedom camping bylaw that goes before council this week.
The Queenstown Lakes District Council bylaw proposes 15 designated freedom camping sites for the district following a surge in freedom campers.

But she told Ryan Bridge the places given the green light for camping are bizarre.
Beryl says it's like they've just pointed at places on a map.
