Te Anau
Set on the fringes of the Fjordland's celebrated wilderness is
the attractive holiday resort town of Te Anau. The town rests on
the shores of the beautiful lake of the same name with spectacular
views of mountain peaks all around. It is the hub of the region and
an excellent base from which to explore the Fjordland area. Te Anau
has achieved the reputation of being the 'Sightseeing and Walking
Capital of the World' having easy access to some of the most
splendid Great Walks and scenery.
Te Anau is also in close proximity to the fjords of Doubtful
Sound, the deepest and most stunning, and Milford Sound, the most
famous and more easily accessible. Lake Te Anau is the second
largest in New Zealand and holiday visitors are attracted by the
wide variety of water sports available. The town also has a
wonderful resource centre with information on tramping and other
excursions, as well as offering aerial sightseeing or organising
trips to the main attractions in the area. The beautiful Lake
Manapouri, dotted with 35 pretty islands, is just nine miles (14km)
away.
