New Zealand’s Fox Glacier is on the South Island’s West Coast, renowned worldwide, and home to the famous Fox Glacier. A treasured spectacle not to be missed. Easily accessible from the main road, the magnificent Fox Glacier is decreasing in size by around 6 meters a year. These rivers of ice are among the most unique Glaciers in the world. The Franz Josef village and Fox Glacier township are close together and offer scenic flights up one glacier and down the other so you have an opportunity to see them both in the same flight. Both towns are a base for most essential services. Visiting Lake Matheson is one of the area's highlights with stunning mirror views of Aoraki/Mt Cook and Mt Tasman. There is just so much to see and do in this beautiful place in the world.
