Found in a rainforest nestled in between the Southern Alps and Tasman Sea, Fox Glacier township is a hidden jewel in New Zealand s crown.
Visiting the quaint township can be equated to taking a small step back in time; the locals all wave to each other as they drive by. Whether looking for a coffee with a view, a walk (or hike!) to some spectacular lakes, horse-trekking through the lush South Westland rainforest, or of course, taking in the views of the vast river of ice that is Fox Glacier, this town has you covered.
