Alpine Pacific Triangle
Experience mountain biking, tramping, skiing and of course relaxing in Hanmer Springs
From the mountains to the plains, and on to the coast, the Alpine Pacific Triangle covers the gamut of North Canterbury attractions, from heritage farm experiences to wine-tasting and dining; Māori cultural experiences to adventure skiing, four-wheel driving and tramping.
Hanmer Springs has long been sought-after for its Spa and hot springs, and now is a centre for a host of adventure activities, most notably winter skiing and regular mountain biking events. Hanmer Springs Village is a great base to use for exploring the rest of the area, which contains many walking and tramping (hiking) tracks.
