Alternative Activities

Non-hunting companions will find New Zealand an exciting and beautiful country to visit. Known as a safe and friendly destination, New Zealand has marvellous natural attractions and few people to share them with. While the hunters are in the field, non-hunters can be doing sightseeing, fishing, wine trails, shopping or adventure activities.

Relax at the homestead or enjoy a tour of the property by 4WD. Coastal seal colonies provide great photo opportunities along with some amazing coastal landforms like Honeycomb Rock. A trip to Masterton (1 hour drive) can include wine trails, abalone and jade jewellery, antique shops, local art galleries and visiting a sanctuary for rare native birds including the Kiwi and Takahe. On a day trip by train to Wellington, the capital city of New Zealand, Te Papa, our National Museum can be visited. Followed by shopping while wandering through the quaint streets around the harbour.
