Travel through a high-country farm - learn about the rich history of the area
When New Zealand was settled by the European in the mid 1800's, farming was pretty much the first industry. Ever since those days there has been a rich history of raising sheep, cattle and deer. Now you can discover so much more about the South Island from your local guide Mark from Ridgeline Adventures in Wanaka. Meet the sheep and hear Mark talk about the region's conservation projects. Visit an old settler's cottage and discover what kind of challenges those early settlers had to face.
