Hanmer Springs Thermal Pools & Spa
3.5/5
Pools were great and you were allowed to take your own food and drink in.
The prices were quite high and you could not go out and back in the same day without paying more. Also need more sunloungers.

Moeraki Boulders Holiday Park @ Hamden Beach
4.5/5
Really laid back place, plenty of space.
Clean and tidy with hot showers, friendly host family. Really close to Moeraki Boulders and Yellow-Eyed Penguin colony. Is being updated and improved by owners at present - only $9 per adult!

Mirror Lakes Walk
0.5/5
Pathetic pond, not very mirrored, only 2 mins from carpark but not worth the stop!

Picturesque setting with a beautiful walk around the lake.

Hooker Valley Track
4.0/5
3 and a half hour return to Glacier lake, but think you can go on further.
Hilly and rocky with a bit of boulder hopping beside the lake. Beautiful scenery the whole way and icebergs in lake at end. Better than Fox or Franz josef!!

Bushy Beach
4.0/5
Nice scenery and 'hide' to watch penguins come ashore.
Saw a few and one up by the carpark so called the ranger. Binoculars need renewing along with window catches in hide. Also walks and seals here.
