In the late 19th century, Dunedin acquired an impressive amount of ostentatious Victorian architecture. No expense was spared. Today you can enjoy the historic public buildings, imposing churches, palatial homes and ornate hotels. There's even a castle. Eco-tourism is the other face of Dunedin—visit penguin, albatross and seal colonies.
Fresh, green farm scenery will accompany you to the historic mill town of Milton—the unusual kink in the main road is where two surveyors didn't quite meet. Next is Balclutha with its distinctive arched concrete bridge and an interesting museum. After Gore you'll travel across the river plain to Lumsden. Stop in Mandeville if you'd like to fly in a Tiger Moth, or by the Mataura River if you want to catch a trout.
Te Anau township sits on the shores of Lake Te Anau. From here, the delights of the Fiordland National Park are within easy reach. Cruise on the lakes, walk the tracks and visit the Department of Conservation wildlife centre. The Te Ana-au Caves are an excellent adventure.
