New Zealand’s Glacier Country, on the South Island’s West Coast, is at the heart of the broader UNESCO World Heritage Area, Te Wahipounamu – South West New Zealand. From the mountains to the sea, you won’t want to miss any of it. Active adventure, relaxation or family fun all against the backdrop of spectacular scenery, Glacier Country offers something for everyone.
Create your own unforgettable Glacier Country experience from the wealth of things to do in Franz Josef Glacier, Fox Glacier, Okarito and the surrounding area.
Road tripping is the thing to do this spring so get yourself in a car and off to Fox Glacier. This glacier descends from the Southern Alps and its bitterly cold down there so wrap up warm, even in the spring months. Go for walks, visit the glow worms or just snuggle up next to a fire in a nearby pub in the township.
