Discover The New Zealand's Great Outdoor
New Zealand is an adventurer's paradise, offering endless opportunities to explore its rugged terrain, from snow-capped mountains and glaciers to pristine beaches and crystal-clear lakes. If you're a fan of the outdoors New Zealand is the ultimate destination for you.
Skiing and snowboarding in the winter on both the North and South Islands is an unforgettable experience. Some like to be near the Queenstown party scene or the volcanic scenery of Mount Ruapehu, while others prefer the superb high-altitude slopes on Mt Hutt, uncrowded Rainbow. Hiking, biking, and kayaking in the summer also provide some fantastic experiences. From the Tongariro Crossing and Lake Waikaremoana in the center of the North Island to the Rakiura Trail on Stewart Island at the bottom of the South Island, the nine Great Walks span the North and South Islands.
But New Zealand isn't just about adrenaline-fueled adventures. The country also has a rich cultural heritage that is waiting to be explored. And of course, no trip to New Zealand is complete without indulging in the country's world-renowned cuisine such as Pāua, Fish and Chips, or Pavlova.
That's all of the must-try things you should have on your trip to New Zealand. So what are you waiting for? Come and explore the magical world of New Zealand, where adventure, culture, and culinary delights await. Whether you're traveling solo, with a partner, or with friends and family, New Zealand is the perfect destination for your next unforgettable journey.

Where to Go
Waiheke Island &
the Hauraki Gulf
A yachty’s paradise, the island-studded Hauraki Gulf is Auckland’s aquatic playground, sheltering its harbor and east-coast bays and providing ample excuse for the City of Sails’ pleasure fleet to breeze into action. Despite the busy maritime traffic, the gulf has its own resident pods of whales and dolphins. Rangitoto Island is an icon of the city, its near-perfect volcanic cone providing the backdrop for many a tourist snapshot.
Wellington
One of the coolest little capitals in the world, Windy Wellington lives up to the hype by keeping things hip, diverse, and rootsy. It’s long famed for a vibrant arts-and-music scene, fuelled by excellent espresso and more restaurants per head than New York…but a host of craft-beer bars have now elbowed in on the action. Edgy yet sociable, colorful yet often dressed in black, Wellington is big on the unexpected and unconventional. Erratic weather only adds zest to the experience
Waitomo Caves
Waitomo is an astonishing maze of subterranean caves, canyons, and rivers perforating the northern King Country limestone. Black-water rafting is the big lure here (like white water rafting but through a dark cave), plus glowworm grottoes, underground abseiling, and more stalactites and stalagmites than you’ll ever see in one place again. Above ground, Waitomo township has many stores with a craft brewery, a cafe, a holiday park, and some decent B&Bs.
Tongariro Alpine Crossing
At the center of the North Island, Tongariro National Park presents an alien landscape of an alpine desert punctuated by three smoking and smoldering volcanoes. This track offers the perfect taste of what the park has to offer, skirting the base of two of the mountains and providing views of craters, brightly colored lakes, and the vast Central Plateau stretching out beyond. It’s for these reasons that it’s often rated as one of the world’s best single-day wilderness walks.

When to travel
Hiking
The summer weather lingers into March: wait until February if possible, when tracks are (marginally) less crowded. Most non-alpine tracks can be walked enjoyably at any time from about October through to April.
Skiing & Snowboarding
The best time to experience skiing and snowboarding in New Zealand is during the winter months of June to August. This is when the ski resorts are open, and the snow conditions are at their best.
Mountain Biking & Cycle Touring
During the summer months of December to February. This is when the weather is warm and dry, making for perfect riding conditions. However, some areas, such as Queenstown and Rotorua, offer mountain biking and cycle touring opportunities year-round.
Skydiving
December to February when the weather is generally clear and dry. Queenstown and Taupo offer skydiving year-round with mild temperatures in the spring and fall.
What to Do
Old Ghost Road
One of the most ambitious of New Zealand’s new cycle trails, the 85km Old Ghost Road is a true backcountry experience retracing two historic gold-mining routes through untouched mountain landscapes.
Christchurch Art Gallery
The city’s premier art institution closed since the 2011 earthquake, has finally reopened better and brighter, and displays some of NZ’s finest works.
Museum of Waitangi
The heritage and ongoing impact in contemporary times of modern NZ’s founding of the document, the 1840 Treaty of Waitangi, is showcased in this spectacular new museum in the Bay of Islands.
Pukeahu National War Memorial Park
Wellington’s newest park is a poignant place – a wide, sensitively designed space below the old art-deco National War Memorial tower (1932), honoring NZ’s servicemen and women
Skyline MTB Gravity Park
Rotorua’s ongoing development into one of the planet’s best places to ride a mountain bike is further enhanced by more than 10km of exciting downhill trails, all accessed by a gondola.
