On This Trip
- Explore Akaroa and the Banks Peninsula
- Relax in Glenorchy and take a Dart River Safari
This itinerary has been designed to explore the South Island’s magnificent scenery in the finest way possible: on foot. Taking you deep into several contrasting national parks, a highlight is the three-day Routeburn Track.
Extensions
New Zealand is a haven for walkers. The Routeburn Track is one great example of a multi-day hike that can be incorporated into a tailor-made itinerary, but there are several other options, both longer and shorter (see pages 76-77). Queenstown or Wanaka make ideal bases for accessing several of these ‘great walks’, and with a host of beautiful accommodation options in both towns, there are plenty of places for you to relax after several days of strenuous tramping.
