Stewart Island (

), the country's rugged southern addendum, is paradise for
trampers, bird-watchers and travellers seeking an authentic NZ experience. Test yourself on
the North West Circuit Track or spend three days on the easier, but still spectacular,
Rakiura Track. Join the friendly locals at NZ's southernmost pub quiz at the South Sea
Hotel in Oban, before making plans to explore the abundant bird life on nearby Ulva Is-
land, or join a kiwi-spotting tour to see NZ's shy feathered icon mooching around at twi-
light on isolated beaches.
