Matukituki Valley area: Mount Aspiring National Park, Otago region

The West and East Matukituki valleys offer enjoyable day walks, as well as access to a number of demanding tramping and climbing routes in Mount Aspiring National Park.

This region’s special features were recognised nationally in 1964 when the park was created, and internationally in 1990 with the establishment of Te Wāhipounamu—South West New Zealand World Heritage Area.

The valley walks cross farmland and beech forest flats, while the higher altitude routes negotiate alpine tussock grasslands and snowfields.
