An epic off-road safari and walk with your friends

Go on an adventurous drive followed by a hike through the remote countryside of Dingleburn Station near Lake Hawea. It is one of the most exciting and spectacular day trips in New Zealand.


This spectacular off-road safari and hike explores Lake Hawea's Dingleburn Station's wild regions. Discover the lonely roads of a New Zealand high-country farm while cruising by the stunning blue waters of Lake Wanaka. Your experienced guide expertly navigates you along a hand-carved road high above Lake Hawea.

Arriving at the remote Silver Island Bay, a seven-kilometre hike begins. You'll hike across the hill pastures from Dingleburn Station to the Dingleburn River, with sweeping views of Lake Hawea and the surrounding mountains. A leisurely picnic lunch awaits you on the river bank. The entire tour takes six to seven hours.
