About Stewart Island

Stewart Island is a paradise for hikers, bird watchers and nature lovers.

The island has about 245 kilometres of walking tracks, all of which can be accessed from Halfmoon Bay.

The tracks range from short walks around the township area to epic journeys that require fitness, stamina and a large degree of self-reliance.

For anyone seeking perfect peace and tranquillity, Stewart Island is the ultimate spot.
