The West Coast region of the South Island of New Zealand is one of the more remote and wild areas of the country and retains the feeling of a pioneer frontier. Renowned for rivers, rainforests, rugged coastline, mountains & glaciers, the West Coast offers breathtaking scenery, fantastic adventure opportunities and Kiwi hospitality.
Must do activities include a guided glacier walk onto Fox or Franz Josef glaciers, scenic flight over Westland National Park perhaps with a snow landing, a walk in the rainforest and visit to the Punakaiki Pancake Rocks. Get amongst the local wildlife on a guided eco-tour including white herons, rare kiwi, seals, penguins & dolphins.
The West Coast has a strong gold and coal mining history with many heritage sites worth visiting. Adventure tour operators offer a range of activities including white water rafting, kayaking, caving, horse treks, fishing, jet boating, mountain biking and mountaineering.
