We are centrally situated for you to explore the Punakaiki Pancake Rocks, Lake Brunner, Fox and Franz Joseph Glaciers. Ideally you need 3-4 days to experience many of our wonderful walks, scenic adventures and activities. If you are coming from the East Coast (Christchurch) take a trip on the Tranz Alpine Train - a highly rated trip through the mountain areas of Arthurs Pass. I can meet you off the train or your can organize a rental car to collect at the station. Kea Tours - our local company run tours to Punakaiki as well as the Glacier region, - a great alternative to driving so you can enjoy the scenery and also the local knowledge of the drivers.
Greymouth was named after one of our Governor Generals - Sir George Grey - it is an area that has had its struggles but is now on the crest of an economic boom, largely due to new coals mines being opened, the dairy industry, tourism, and all the industries supporting those mentioned.
