Arthur's Pass National Park is situated between Canterbury and the West Coast in the South Island of New Zealand.

There is a striking difference between the habitats on either side of the main divide. Mountain beech/tawhai dominates eastern slopes. To the west is mixed podocarp rainforest and red-flowering rata, with a luxuriant understorey of shrubs, ferns and mosses. A historic highway and railway runs through the middle.

Popular Activites include: hiking, bird watching, mountain biking, camping, and climbing
