About
This New Zealand hiking holiday concentrates on the east and north/northeast areas of the South Island. You'll be able to gaze in wonder at the immensity of whales in their natural environment and enjoy the antics of dolphins and seals.
Watch the sun rise over the Pacific Ocean from the summit of Mount Fyffe in the rugged Kaikoura Range. Birdwatch in a 'mainland island' reserve and swim in crystal clear lakes and rivers.
Wander through dappled sunlight in beech forest and get to know quirky alpine plants. Hike along a rocky alpine ridge with views of glacial lakes, climb a craggy peak and follow a cascading mountain stream in Nelson Lakes National Park. Sea kayak the clear blue waters of Abel Tasman National Park.
