The West Coast of New Zealand contains rugged natural beauty with rainforest & native bush, and is home to Glacier Country and the spectacular Fox Glacier.

 

The glaciers of the West Coast flow into the rainforest at Fox Glacier making it accessible for visitors to explore.  The glacier’s ice flows from the Southern Alps down towards the township of Fox Glacier where visitors can base themselves for glacier walking trails, heli-hikes and scenic flights.  Fox Glacier is 13 kms long, making it the longest of the West Coast glaciers.  Fox Glacier is a must-see stop while you are in the region!

The temperature at Fox Glacier varies throughout the year and the West Coast weather is always changing, so temperatures can range from 0-25 degrees Celsius in the glacial and rainforest terrain.  Fox Glacier offers a more relaxed atmosphere if you are choosing between Fox and Franz Josef Glacier.  Experience the magnificent beauty of the West Coast at Fox Glacier and book your next holiday to the West Coast.
