More about the South Island
Dunedin is a lively city with an enduring Scottish heritage. It is located in the Otago Peninsula region, which has many spectacular natural features, such as several huge lakes and forests, accompanied by caves, glaciers, waterfalls and whirlpools.
On South Island you also discover the beautiful Fjordland national park. This encompasses glaciers, waterfalls, mountains and forests. This area offers countless alpine walks with stunning views of the surrounding landscape.
Close by is Queenstown, set on the edge of a lake in an icy valley and the number one destination for lovers of adventure sports. It is a winter wonderland, the Alps of the south.
I only got as far as Picton on the South Island, but I will be back, with warmer clothes! I thought England was chilly in spring, but whew! I was frosty once I hit Wellington and then crossed over.
