3.5/5
Not quite up to global standards but the views and the cheeky kea made up for it.
Great off piste and atmosphere on the slope and cafe, try not to go in the school holidays as there are only three lifts.
North Island ▷ Wairarapa ▷ Ngawi ▷
3.5/5
The Pinnacles walk itself was OK.
There is a viewpoint from where you can see the whole thing but it is all much more impressive when you walk up the gorge and you are looking up at them.

5.0/5
An amazing way to experience Abel Tasman National Park.
We took the option to get a taxi up to Barks Bay and kayak back. It was quite pricey but worth it rather than doing a day trip there and back in kayaks.

Great walk, largely unpopulated, managed to go swimming on the most beautiful beach without disturbing anyone.
Nothing too strenuous.

Harwoods Hole walk was one to remember.
The old woods with their spooky feel, all very beautiful. We did not make it to the Hole itself, but the viewpoint was incredible. Well worth the drive down the long gravel track, do not drive too fast.
