This itinerary connects some of the South Island’s most interesting destinations. From Queenstown you’ll journey to the river and rainforest environment of the west coast. See the glaciers, then drive on to explore the historic towns of Hokitika and Greymouth. The road to Arthur’s Pass village is mountainous and memorable - stretch your legs on a bush walk before you continue on to the heritage and art attractions of Christchurch. Turquoise glacial lakes are the gateway to Mount Cook National Park – explore the mountain trails before you return to Queenstown via beautiful Lindis Pass and the Kawarau Gorge.
