Stewart Island aka: Rakiura

I want to go back and do that one hard-out track, see if I can’t catch a glimpse of the Southern Lights. The one time I went there, I spent the week mostly drunk with my friends.

That was awesome too. :D

I want to visit here as part of my campaign to “stick my Toe” in the ocean at the most southern points of each of the world’s major landmasses….So Far I’ve been to Lands End in Tasmania (South of Cockle Creek) and Cape Agulas in South Africa

Not a good tourist destination, but if you enjoy tramping (hiking) and waist-deep mud, you can’t do much better than Stewart Island. It’s out there.

not worth the time and money.
i had just one photo opportunity, on Ulva island, and i admit it was worth it, but still…
(ulva island is a tiny little island where you are supposed to see a lot of endemic birds, we mainly spotted Wekas. nothing to write home about)
