Travelling the South Island by 4x4

By Greg Annandale

May 5^th, 2019

February 2019; my wife and I spent 8 days touring the southern half of New Zealand's South Island. We had the use of a very handsome Land Rover Discovery provided by our friend James at Intrepid Rentals, complete with snorkel and roof tent, so we were keen to get off the tarmac where possible and explore some of the many gravel and mud tracks criss-crossing the island.

Armed with some of James' immense knowledge of the area (along with his map of unpaved routes), we started off in Queenstown and crammed as much as we could into the short amount of time that we had.

This final part is made of the medium-format film shots from the trip (see part 1 and part 2 of the photo story).

We took a small detour for the final part of the trip and popped over to Auckland for a couple of days, visiting two friends who had moved over there a few years ago.
