Some of My South Island Faves
Manage episode 353776805 series 3197435
What are some of my favourite walks, hikes and places to visit in the South Island? Here’s a short list.
(Some are covered in more detail in other blog posts of mine, and linked to them accordingly.)
To start with, I’ve just lately done the romantically named Moonlight Track, which runs from the beautiful Moke, pronounced Mokeh, Lake to Arthurs Point in the hills behind new Zealand’s informal tourist capital of Queenstown. The track’s named after a prospector called George Fairweather Moonlight: but I like to think it would be fun to do it under a full moon as well!
