Thanks, yeah it is stunning around here, such a variety of landscapes (wet rainforest to arid valleys to mountains) with a day's drive... I guess the downside is that almost all land is private, you can't even set foot on it let alone camp on it (and forget about bikepacking, perhaps two or three viable routes in the whole country). It's incredibly prescriptive as to where you can and can't go, compared to Europe or especially Scotland. Which is not what I expected from NZ. Swings and roundabouts I guess.
