Arthur’s pass
The Arthur’s Pass National Park is in itself a two-sided landscape. On the eastern side, you will see wide river beds filled with pebbles and vast swaths of beech forest. Descend on the western side and you will enter a dense tropical forest on the banks of rivers of deep water. Enjoy the panoramic views of the famous Tranz Alpine train service.
Queenstown
Surrounded by majestic mountains and located on the shores of crystal clear Lake Wakatipu, the natural beauty and unique energy of the region create the perfect setting for an adventure-filled holiday, Queenstown was dug into the earth by glaciers, rivers and lakes, but has been formed by innovative adventurers and entrepreneurs from New Zealand and around the world.
Milford sound
Described by Rudyard Kipling as the “eighth wonder of the world,” the Milford Sound strait was sculpted by glaciers during the Ice Age. The Milford Sound strait is impressive with any weather. The cliffs of the fjord rise vertically from the dark waters, the tops of the mountains scratch the sky and the water descends in cascades, some of up to 1,000 meters.
