Day Trips

Both Franz Josef and Hokitika have their own pages with full coverage of what to see and do. The region's geography — everything on a single highway, north to south — makes it straightforward to combine both in a single day's drive, or to use either as a base for exploring the other. Franz Josef and Fox Glacier are only 25km apart, so covering both glaciers in a day is entirely realistic.
