Southern Highlights
Wing into resurgent
Christchurch
and stock up on supplies before tramping some of the
South Island's best tracks. Dive in at the deep end in
Arthur's Pass National Park
by sum-
miting Avalanche Peak, a strenuous but rewarding day walk rivalling the best in the land.
Take the Inland Scenic Route south to
Lake Tekapo
, arriving in time to tour the night
skies at Mt John Observatory. The views here are just as impressive during the daytime, too.
Get up early and drive to
Aoraki/Mt Cook National Park
, allowing you time to tramp in to
Mueller Hut, one of New Zealand's highest.
