  Hiking:
  Recent workawayers have really enjoyed hiking the trails - there are mountain hikes - and also easier trails, including a cave hike.
  
  Glacier:
  Visit a glacier and see the moraine, plus the clear turquoise water.
  
  Glacial Lakes and Swimming:
  Stunning lakes nearby - some of the most photographed lakes in New Zealand. Lake Tekapo, Lake Pukaki, Lake Opuha, and the Ashburton Lakes.
  
  Swimming:
  Several local swimming spots, plus as mentioned above, you can take a swim in the blue / turquoise water of the beautiful glacial waters - so unique!
  
  Skiing and Snowboarding:
  Several ski resorts nearby - Roundhill in Tekapo and Mt. Dobson.
  
  Mount Cook:
  Mount Cook is an easy drive from here of approximately 50 minutes to the amazing Lake Pukaki to see Mt. Cook and then 30 more minutes to the scenic Mt. Cook Village.
  
  Ocean Beaches:
  The beautiful Caroline Bay beach (rated one of the best in NZ) is nearby in Timaru. You can also see the world's smallest penguin in the wild at this beach.
  
  Peel Forest:
  Gigantic 1000 year old ancient Totara trees - and also several waterfalls within easy hikes.
  
  Fishing and riverside walks:
  Lakes and streams abound for fishing! We have equipment to loan you.

  Transportation:
  
  It is best if you have your own vehicle because we are not within walking distance of town.
  
  BUS: There is a bus stop nearby (about a 10 minute drive). This is a good option for travelling here from farther away.
  
  There is no public transport within the town, so as mentioned - having your own vehicle would be a plus, but not absolutely necessary.
  
  Thank you for reading our profile!

  There is good mobile range here though, so if you have your own data on your phone/device then that might be good enough (depending how much internet you need). If you need hours of internet a day then this would not be a good fit as ours is sometimes limited because of power/solar.
