The West Coast is a true paradise for outdoor enthusiasts. This 400 km stretch between Haast and Westport offers spectacular scenery. But be prepared for the West Coast, also known as the Wet Coat. Here, rainfall is not measured in millimetres or centimetres, but in metres! In short, expect the unexpected with the Wild West Coast!
Why is Highway 6 so popular? It’s certainly because it’s the only gateway to many of the South Island’s beautiful destinations. For example, many visitors come here to explore Westland Tai Poutini National Park and Paparoa National Park. The towns of Hokitika and Greymouth offer the opportunity to discover local Māori traditions, as well as to understand the tumultuous era of the gold rush. Guaranteed to suit all tastes!
