Situated only 30 minutes south of Fox Glacier and 50 minutes north of Haast, and surrounded by the magnificent South Westland landscape, this boutique lodge featuring various West Coast native timbers, provides an intimate atmosphere where guests are treated to the utmost hospitality. Our three guest rooms have ensuite bathrooms complete with heated floors and mirrors, bathrobes, hairdryers and toiletries. There is also a fully self contained suite available suitable as a family unit. We now have a spa pool for guest use. Great for after a days activities. Enjoy our selection of local cuisine, fine NZ wines and John?s complimentary interpretation tour of the area. It's all here - fishing, hunting, bush walking, the beach and wonderful photographic opportunities - and it?s peaceful as well. Mahitahi Lodge caters for the needs of our guests. If you have any dietary requirements please let us know. Our guests are welcome to join us at our table specifically made for us from West Coast Matai.

? JOHN?S TOURS

John would be only too pleased to take you on a local interpretation tour of the environment, culture and history of Bruce Bay.

In season, catch your own whitebait for breakfast, a New Zealand delicacy. Our whitebait fritters are thoroughly enjoyed by our guests and even better accompanied by our home made bread.

? BRUCE BAY WALK

Enjoy a 3 hour walk in Bruce Bay.

Firstly, cross the Mahitahi River. Observe the variety of sea birds and perhaps a chance sighting of the Hectors Dolphins.

Walk the sandy beach which was once the pathway of the original inhabitants some 700 years past.

Pan the gold-bearing black sands, a reason for the gold rush in 1864 and the surveying of Weldtown.

Walk the old tram track and discover the resting relics of logging days since past.

Try a spot of fishing, take photographs or just enjoy the ambience and views from this secluded spot.

? KAYAK THE GOLDEN MILE

Take our kayaks and paddle the ?golden mile?, a sedate and beautiful stream running through the rain forest. The
yellow flower of the kowhai tree signifies the start of spring and the whitebait run.

Other Activities

We are only too pleased to help you plan your itinerary and make your arrangements for you free of charge.

? Visit Fox and/or Franz Josef Glaciers where you can walk to the glacier, or take a helicopter flight. Guided treks on the ice are also available.

? Take a heli flight to Milford Sound ? save the time of traveling down there.
