A breathtaking fusion of Nature’s Beauty
Franz Josef Glacier village is an appealing alpine village surrounded by lush West Coast rainforest and mountain views and is just a five minute drive from the glacier.
Flowing almost to sea level into the dense rainforests of Westland National Park, Franz Josef Glacier and Fox Glacier are the fastest flowing glaciers in New Zealand and the only glaciers in the world located alongside a temperate rainforest with ready access.
Spend a day or two exploring either or both Glaciers with an experienced guide or take a helicopter flight with breathtaking views of the scenery.
