Arthur’s Pass is an incredible beautiful mountain pass which goes through Southern Alps. It's a place where rugged mountains and wild adventure come together and the West Coast Region and Canterbury Region meet in the middle. It’s one of NZ’s most iconic passes and a great place to see some of the country’s best hikes and scenery.
The tiny Arthur’s Pass Village is the perfect base to explore Arthurs Pass. It's surrounded by native beech forest, with easy access to spots like the Devil’s Punchbowl Waterfall, which is a must-see!
It's notorious for cheeky kea - the world's only alpine parrots. These curious alpine birds are the real locals, always up to something and can start tearing strips off your car in the blink of an eye! Lucky they're cute.
If you’re into wild mountain scenery, breathtaking walks and fresh alpine air, Arthur’s Pass should be on your travel must-see list.
