A fabulous location.
All the sites are terraced so everyone can enjoy the view. The amenities are luxurious, the common room is beautiful. There's undercover camping in purpose built sheds for bad weather. Brilliant!

First part of the track - Swing Bridge to Shallow Bay Hut.
Beautiful forest walk, flat just about all the way. Gorgeous views of Lake Manapouri from Shallow Bay, take a picnic lunch and enjoy on the shores. Really magical walk.

A fabulous rafting trip for first timers, young & old.
The guides were brilliant & really looked after us. The drive in via Skippers Canyon Rd was awesome & it was a real highlight of our trip.

Awesome - while not technically free, all of the DOC sites are a lot cheaper than normal campgrounds and are in beautiful locations.

The van seems quite old & the fittings are all fairly worn, I think it could do with a refit.
Also the brakes are pretty floppy, it could do with a service.

Fantastic short walk through amazing tunnels built by the gold miners.
Really great family walk, perhaps take a torch to appreciate feat.
