Mackenzie District

The Mackenzie Region is located in the centre of the South Island; here Aoraki Mount Cook towers over this beautiful expansive area at 3,754 meters. There is so much to see and do, from Lake Tekapo’s amazing unique turquoise colour, uniquely created by nature; recline in delicious hot pools at a delightful spa after ice skating, skiing, snowboarding, heli-bike, skydive, a round of golf, fly-fishing, kayak, a relaxing boat cruise, take a memorable scenic flight and view areas used for backdrops on The Lord of the Rings film sets, horse trekking, mountain biking, or star-watch at the infamous Mt John Observatory.
