Photographic locations worth sweating for: Matiri magic, Kahurangi National Park

Matiri magic, Kahurangi National Park

Peter takes us deep into the heart of Kahurangi National Park, exploring the wild beauty of the Thousand Acres and Hundred Acres Plateaus. From limestone cliffs and reflective tarns to the rewarding climbs of The Haystack, The Needle and Mount Misery, it’s a journey through one of Aotearoa’s most dramatic and lesser-travelled landscapes – where every step offers a new photographic possibility.

Kahurangi National Park is a place of amazing landscapes. The karst rock, weathered and sculpted over eons into the most fantastic basins, ridges and peaks, combined with beautiful forests, wetlands, rivers and lakes, offers endless photographic potential.
