Explorin' Wanaka
Hellooo đâšIâm Nic, a Brit who moved to New Zealand three years ago and accidentally fell in love with a little mountain town called WÄnaka. Iâve been lucky enough to call it home for the past two years, and I pretty much spend all my free time out exploring â hiking after work, swimming in the lake, chasing sunsets and hunting down the best coffee, pastries & quiet spots to escape the crowds.
So Iâve pulled together all the good stuff so you can skip the guesswork and get straight to the adventure. Inside are my favourite trails, go-to swim spots, cafĂ©s, viewpoints, hidden corners and all the places I take friends when they visit. I hope you enjoy this beautiful corner of New Zealand. Happy explorinâ đ«¶đïžđ
