🎿 SKI RESORTS - CANADA 🎿
Canadian ski resorts are world-class thanks to their long seasons, unbeatable snow, quiet slopes and variety of terrain. The deep-powder runs in Whistler are great for experts, while thrill-seekers will love the heli-skiing in Banff.
đź“Ť CANADA - VANCOUVER đź“Ť
Consider visiting Vancouver!
This Commonwealth country is actually the world’s second largest.
Most of that land area, however, is complete wilderness. That is certainly one of the draws of Canada: the utterly vast expanses of nature to really and truly get lost in.
Its national parks are truly massive, offering picture-perfect vistas. Mountaineering, hiking, boating, swimming, cycling – there’s a lot of rewards here if you’re a fan of the great outdoors. Spot grizzly bears in Banff National Park, hit the powdered slopes of Whistler, or taste your way through some of Vancouver’s freshest wild salmon.

6 INCREDIBLE ROAD TRIPS YOU MUST DO IN NEW ZEALAND
New Zealand is one of those destinations best explored by car or campervan. Public transport is limited outside cities, and so much of what you'll want to see and do is off-the-beaten-track, immersed in New Zealand's incredible natural environments. Road tripping means touring at your own pace, stopping for stunning walks, cycle rides, wild swimming, or wildlife spotting.

Find out why they call it "the Winterless North" on this road trip
Auckland–Auckland (roundtrip), distance 650 miles (1050kms), a week or more
Kiwis call the regions north of Auckland (Northland & the Bay of Islands) the "Winterless North" because of its year-round subtropical climate. First, to the Bay of Islands, via the surf beaches of Mangawhai and the artsy city of Whang?rei, which requires a good day or two of exploring.
Next, drive north and ferry over to the former whaling port of Russell, which matches heritage charm with the on-water adventures like sailing, diving, fishing, and kayaking. All of these are also accessed from the thriving mainland town of Paihia -- where you’ll also want to spend a day at the Waitangi Treaty Grounds learning about the colonial history of New Zealand.
Further north the attractions are more remote and even more spectacular, leading all the way to the very top of the North Island at spiritual Cape Reinga, where the Tasman Sea and the Pacific Ocean meet. On your way to the tip, stop at foodie Kerikeri; laidback Mangonui (which will please seafood lovers); and another day at Ahipara, with its surf breaks and nearby sand dunes.
Heading south again, you’ll drive through the incredible Waipoua Forest, where the last giants of the once extensive kauri forests here will take your breath away, stopping at sleepy coastal towns peppered with stories of colonisation, migration and hard labour.
Beach-comb around the Coromandel Peninsula
Thames–Waihi Beach, distance 190 miles (305 kms), 1-3 days
Coastal roads weave a magical path on this journey around the compact but colourful Coromandel Peninsula, a favourite holiday spot for residents of nearby Auckland and Hamilton. As well as a gorgeous beach-fringed coastline, the Coromandel also holds the legacy of its gold-mining past in the heritage streets of Thames, Coromandel Town and Waihi.
Start in Thames, then head north to the thriving community of Coromandel Town via the beautiful 64-acre estate Rapaura Water Gardens. Next detour from Colvile to the rugged northernmost tip of the Coromandel Peninsula, ideally in summer (December to February) when roads are dry and the pohutukawa trees are in their crimson glory.
Heading back down the other side of the peninsula you’ll visit Whitianga and the nearby beaches of Mercury Bay. Diving, boating, game fishing and kayaking are the big draws at Te Whanganui-A-Hei Marine Reserve. Further south natural attractions like the stone arch at Cathedral Cove near Hahei and Hot Water Beach (which lives up to its name!). Dig a pool in the sand and relax in the hot waters that rise up from beneath the surface.
Wellington to Rotorua via vineyards and Art Deco architecture
Wellington–Rotorua, distance 520 miles (840 kms), 4-7 days
After a good few days exploring the excellent museums, galleries and bars of New Zealand’s compact, boho capital, Wellington, it's tine to hit the road. First, you'll head north along the Hutt River valley, detouring into the Martinborough wine region to taste world-famous pinot noirs. Next, continue on to the Pacific coast: a languid arc combining sandy beaches and spectacular scenery with M?ori cultural experiences.
The stretch from Havelock North to Hastings is surrounded by bountiful orchards and much-loved wineries which can be explored on an organised cycling tour, or you can continue by car. At the southern tip of Hawke’s Bay, Cape Kidnappers (Te Kauwae-a-M?ui) lures golfers (with a spectacular course) and birdwatchers as there's a 3000-strong gannet colony on the headland here.
Next you're going to head to the gorgeous seaside city of Napier with its impressive Art Deco architecture, it's also another great spot for foodies. The remote East Cape is next. Stop at sun-soaked Whakat?ne and the beaches of ?hope, before turning inland to round off this epic circuit at the geothermal hotspot of Rotorua, with its incredible M?ori cultural immersion experiences and host of outdoors activities like mountain biking and luging.
An epic road trip fully exploring New Zealand's Southern Alps
Christchurch–Christchurch (roundtrip), distance 850 miles (1380kms), a week or more
Trip through varied landscapes including scenic mountains, wild coasts, lush lakelands, and rural highways dotted with tiny hamlets on this grand South Island tour. Starting from Christchurch, with its mix of old England and future-facing Kiwi ingenuity, head to the alpine reaches of Arthur’s Pass National Park which rises to 2408m at Mt Murchison.
Next you’re over the other side of New Zealand, meandering along the west coast through historic towns and artistic communities at Hokitika and Ross. The adventure rises again at the Franz Josef and Fox Glacier townships, where you have multiple options for glacier viewing (helicopter ride or sky diving anyone?).
Heading south, the Haast region in Te W?hipounamu–South West New Zealand World Heritage Area is the place for seabird-spotting and perhaps some tree-hugging in the ancient kahikatea swamp forest at Ship Creek. Finally wend your way to Queenstown via the incredible Lake W?naka where paddling, hiking, skiing and climbing are among the outdoor pursuits that have made this region famous.
Follow in the footsteps of gold miners on the Otago Heritage Trail
Dunedin–Dunedin (roundtrip), distance 280 miles (450kms), 2-3 days
The discovery of gold in the 1860s led Europeans to migrate to this South Island region, now Otago, and much of that heritage remains today. Old miners’ trails and abandoned railway lines have been repurposed for leisurely cycle rides and long strolls. Agricultural towns still house historic stone buildings and Gold Rush stories, while colourful deciduous trees, winding roads, and romantic old railway bridges demand to be photographed.
This driving tour starts in the vibrant city of Dunedin, where warehouses have been converted into hotels and art galleries, and university students pack international restaurants and pubs all week. After exploring for a few days, head south towards Lawrence – the scene of NZ’s first Gold Rush in 1861 – to the historically-significant Horseshoe Bend Bridge over Clutha River/ Mata-au, NZ’s second longest river. Next you’ll visit the sweet-smelling fruit orchards and vineyards of Central Otago, before arriving in Alexander, Clyde or Middlemarch to tackle the Central Otago Rail Trail by bicycle, or by foot.
For more heritage streetscapes, schedule a stop in Naseby, staying overnight to enjoy a night tour under its brilliant starry skies. Detours from this route will take you into snow-capped mountains, across to the dramatic fiords in the west, or to the rugged beauty of the southern coast.
Drive dramatic views through Fiordland to the mighty Milford Sound
Queenstown–Mildford Sound, distance 180 miles (290kms), 2 days
Southern Fiordland is arguably New Zealand’s finest outdoor treasure. A landscape hewn in rock and ice, its grandeur can make you feel like a tiny speck in the face of nature (in the best possible way).
Panoramic alpine views characterise this drive as you make your way from Queenstown past Kelvin Peninsula at the foot of The Remarkables, along the eastern shore of Lake Wakatipu and past the Devil's Staircase and on to Te Anau. Stay overnight and take a tour of the 200m-long glow worm caves filled with strange rock forms, whirlpools and waterfalls, before cruising north past Lake Mistletoe, Mackay Creek, Mirror Lakes and Lake Gunn–Cascade Creek, each stunning spots to stretch your legs, and admire the wilderness here.
This area is known to the M?ori inhabitants as O Tapara, a regular stopover for parties heading to Milford Sound in search of pounamu (greenstone/jade). The final stretch to the majestic Fiordland National Park takes you through Homer Tunnel, a road laboriously cut through the mountains during the Great Depression.
