An adventure of mystery, nostalgia and serenity
There’s something special about being in the company of a grand piece of water. The environmental balance of a lake can help provide a calmness of mind — ideal if you’re travelling to reconnect with nature.
Plan your ten day Christchurch motorhome rental with a drive to Queenstown and fully relax by parking up at some of the best lakes the South Island has to offer.
From glacial-fed lakes to human-made reservoirs, from turquoise hues to dark blue tones, from oligotrophic lakes to mesotrophic ones — we feature an array of impressive bodies of water.
And if sitting back and just taking in the scenery isn’t your thing, try fishing, soaking, kayaking, boating or even parasailing at one of these lakes.
This adventure will see you head straight for the Canterbury foothills then deep into the Southern Alps before crossing into Central Otago — returning via the underrated West Coast lakes.
