The top 5 most beautiful travel destinations in New Zealand

There is hardly any travel destination that is further away from Germany than New Zealand. You'll dive into a new world of volcanoes, snow-capped peaks, rugged coastlines and jungle landscapes. Even hot springs, beaches and fjords characterize the country.

Is it any wonder that New Zealand is so popular as a film location for film productions? You can easily explore the Kiwi State on your own or with a tour group. What you have to see from him is here.

New Zealand is above all a paradise for nature lovers. The 12,500 km² national park shows this clearly. It is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is located in the southwest of New Zealand's South Island.

You will see majestic mountains, picturesque fjords and romantic lakes. A highlight of the park is the approximately 15 km long fjord Milford Sound. If you take a boat tour there, with a bit of luck you will see seals and dolphins.

The beach measures 88 km, which is why its name is somewhat misleading. Nevertheless, it is worth a trip because it is beautiful. It is located on the North Island and allows you to have fun with water sports: surfing, fishing, bodyboarding - everything is possible. After exercise, you can rest on the mighty dunes.

If you follow the beach up to the north, you will reach Cape Reinga. This northwesternmost point in the country is marked by a lighthouse that towers over the rugged Pacific coast.

Auckland is one of New Zealand's metropolises and reveals to you how much serenity is part of the locals' attitude to life. As you stroll through the city, you won't miss the Auckland Sky Tower. It measures 328 m.

The tower has a viewing platform at a height of 220 m, from which you have a fantastic 360-degree panoramic view. If the weather is good, you can see up to 80 km into the surrounding area.

On the North Island you will find Rotorua, a thermal realm of dreams. Lakes full of mud, geysers and bubbling pools characterize the unique landscape. A bath in one of the hot springs is possible.

Don't worry: medical care in New Zealand is of a high standard. Hospitals are very well equipped, which is why you receive excellent first aid.

But you need to know one thing: your statutory health insurance does not pay for trips outside of Europe. For this reason, you absolutely need international health insurance. It protects you from expensive medical costs in the event of health problems.
