Franz Josef TOWNSHIP

The township of Franz Josef is home to just 200 local residents and boasts an excellent range of accommodation and dining options. [link to Glacier Country website]

Wildlife in the area thrives in the rugged conditions, and the lush natural rainforest is home to captivating birds, flora and fauna. If you’re very lucky you may spot a rare Kiwi and the distinct call of the Tui and Korero is never far away.

The diverse and iconic range of activities in the region includes jetboating, heli-hiking, kayaking, ice climbing, tramping and guided glacier trips.

We highly recommend:
