These narrow sea inlets are framed by towering cliffs and lush rainforests, creating a stunning backdrop for kayaking and boat tours. In the central region, the Southern Alps rise dramatically, offering skiing and snowboarding opportunities in the winter months at places like Mount Hutt and Treble Cone. These peaks also provide excellent hiking trails during the warmer seasons, including the famous Routeburn Track with its alpine vistas.
