Top Spots To Explore Nature In in New Zealand

"A spectacular place. The best way to see Cascade Saddle is by walking it. It takes between 1-2 days to cross it and is located between the West Matukituki and the Dart Valleys. Best experienced during summer!"

"An amazing Blue Pools walk, this track will allow you access to the most beautiful views of the river gorge, beech/tawhero forest and the Young river. It’s a 7km return track walk, and well worth giving it a go!"

"Haast Pass is a spectacular 140km of State Highway 6 and is a historical route between Central Otago and the West Coast. If you’re a bit lazy or just don’t want to get out of the car, this is a spectacular drive and a great way to see Otago!"

"Butterfields Wetland Walk is a small loop track around the Butterfields Wildlife Management Area. I love it for bike riding and mountain biking and is a spetacular slice of Otago."

"No bookings required at Slyvan Campsite, but you better get in quick, because this place is super popular and you may in fact miss a spot for the night! There are loads of fun, family-friendly activities here including nice walks and spots for fishing."
