Why we love it
Wade upstream to stalk wild brown trout in the gin-clear waters of the streams and rivers of the region - one of the best fisheries in the world.
Fish in waters where no angler may have cast a line in yet, after being transported by helicopter to remote wilderness streams.
Grab your friends and relax after an exhilarating day fly fishing in the 4-person jacuzzi, soaking up views of the river, valley and mountains.
Ease your tired muscles by indulging in a massage in the privacy of your room, or in the spa treatment room-- a relaxing end to day out in nature.
Hop on a mountain bike and cycle down the country lanes that start from right outside the lodge, cycling along the Owen River.
Hike up Mount Owen or around the base of the mountain to explore some of the best scenery the country has to offer.
Visit the lodge's quintessential Kiwi sheep and beef farming neighbours, and see their sheep being shorn on a tiki tour.
Spend some time walking the lodge's two labradors - Keeley and Indi - exploring the Owen River Lodge's acres of gardens.
Lesley & Hary
We had such a wonderful holiday. Katie put together a brilliant itinerary, which we tweaked a little in places, and the accommodation she chose was first class. She gave us great recommendations of activities and the whole trip went smoothly. Timings worked well between destinations because she had good knowledge of New Zealand, and the driving distances, car changes, ferry crossings, meeting points for activities were all easily achievable.
