Very good day trip in the Bay of Islands, very nice host, Mike.
We loved to take part in handling the ropes and wheel.

South Island ▷ Fiordland ▷ Milford Sound - Fiordland National Park ▷
Milford Track
Very nice track, we saw every kind of nature, the rainforest (we were lucky with the weather).
Waterfalls. The third day was hard and it is a bit expensive.

North Island ▷ Northland ▷ Paihia ▷
Waitangi Treaty Grounds
Very interesting, we learned about history especially meeting with tribes.
A bit expensive for what it was.

South Island ▷ Coastal Otago ▷ Oamaru ▷
Oamaru Blue Penguin Colony
Very good view of the penguins, we could see them struggling to get on the beach and meeting their 'mates'.

North Island ▷ Auckland Region ▷ Auckland ▷
South Auckland Caravan Park
We stayed at this caravan park for a few months and it was great.
The hosts are very friendly and helpful and we are still keeping in touch with them. Facilities are okay.

South Island ▷ Nelson Region ▷ St Arnaud ▷
Nelson Lakes National Park
The DOC site itself was very good with loads of explanation but was not informed well enough as the person did not tell us about closed tracks.
The ranger onsite instead was great.

South Island ▷ Mount Cook - MacKenzie ▷ Mount Cook ▷
Aoraki / Mt Cook National Park
The exhibition was amazing, very interesting and loads of information.
The ladies at the welcome desk were extremely nice and helpful.

Nugget Point / Tokata
We stopped at Nugget Point where there is a DOC shed to see Yellow Eyed Penguins.
It was an amazing experience to 'spy' them on the beach.

Forest Pools
Very good spot, located close to Puketi Forest.
The campsite is just beside a river where you can have a swim or you can also access some tracks. Great free spot.

North Island ▷ Northland ▷ Hokianga ▷
Four Sisters Walk
Walking through the forest and reaching the giant Kauri trees, that was great!
They are so impressive! There are loads of signs reminding us to protect them - maybe too many?

Loved this track.
