out of 5

Fox Glacier is a spectacular sight, with icy blue waters cascading down from the Southern Alps of New Zealand. This huge, 13-kilometre-long glacier is a popular destination for those who want to experience the power of nature first-hand. The views from the glacier are simply breathtaking, and you can even take a guided tour on the ice. The nearby Fox Glacier village is a great base for exploring the surrounding area, including the Lake Matheson wetlands and rainforest. After a day of glacier trekking, why not relax in one of the village’s hot springs or take a scenic helicopter flight over the glacier? Whatever you decide, Fox Glacier is sure to be an unforgettable experience.
