Guide de voyage: District de Selwyn 2026

District de Selwyn : idées de séjour, infos pratiques et culturelles

During my travels by bicycle in New Zealand, I treated myself to the Tranz Alpine which goes from the west to the east coast of the South Island, or the other way around. This was taken from the train. The yellow flowers called broom (cytisus scoparius) aren't really flowers although beautiful, they are considered a weed and a threat to the native flora and fauna. I also rode in the Coastal Pacific train which borders the eastern coast of the island finishing in the port town of Picton.

Absolutely stunning! We visited on the opening weekend and it was great. Powdery open trails, get trails for all levels too. Not busy by any standard, and the views from the top are breathtaking. Advice: It is in a basin where the sun doesn't get to much so dress warmly! And I would recommend a 4 wheel drive as the road is very steep gravel :) Other than that - just the essentials. Snacks, and a camera!
The trip to Avalanche peak is demanding. The last part is pretty scary, but the views from the top are breathtaking.
Castle hill is an incredibly scenic place that is also loved by climbers
