Although a little further flung than most other travel destinations, New Zealand abundantly repays the effort it takes to get there – as many people are discovering. This beautiful country is now placed firmly on the world tourism map. Extending just 1,600km (944 miles) from north to south, New Zealand has everything you could possibly want for a completely different kind of holiday. One of the country’s most obvious attractions is the great outdoors: this clean, unpolluted land has 14 national parks, which, along with forest parks and reserves, cover 22 per cent of the nation’s 269,000sq km area (103,900sq miles). These parks encompass lakes and rivers swarming with trout, stunning fiords and glaciers, mighty volcanoes and bubbling geysers, golden beaches and bays, and mountains and hills with fern-filled, mossy gorges and tumbling waterfalls. This splendid landscape is ideal for sailing, skiing, hiking, fishing and hunting, while hot-air ballooning and bungee jumping are also favourites with both young and old. There are no native land mammals, but instead, New Zealand has a range of rare and extraordinary birds, making it a worthwhile destination for birdwatchers. Meanwhile, marine mammals such as whales, dolphins and seals flourish in the surrounding seas.
