| Christchurch | Trip to South Island Posted: Sun July 2, 2006 02:56 AM UTC
Hi everyone,
I'm planning my first trip to the South Island of NZ and would like to start my journey from Christchurch. We plan to rent a caravan and drive all the way. I've read on this forum on a few recommendations of places to visit but no mention of Invercargill. Is this a scenic place to visit? What would the weather be like in September/October? Are there a lot of places where we can park and camp out in the caravan in the South Island? And is it safe? Hope to get some answers to my questions and thanks in advance. :) |

Sept 0ctober is spring and a good time to vist. Some mornings may be brisk, but it will be OK.
Plenty of caravan parks all over the SI. Get a book called Jasons (www.jasons.co.nz) available at many tourist place - motels - parks. No mention of Invercargill for a good reason. A small town like many others, but not scenic compared to other parts on the SI.
