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. 

Save Clean New Zealand spokesperson Andrea Beryl says she's not against freedom camping, as the area relies on tourism. 

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.
