TRAVEL MAP
Otago
The second of our series of detailed maps covering the country takes us around Otago from the Catlins to Lake Wanaka.
FEATURES
Big Wave: Catching the monstrous swells that roll around the hip of the Catlins Coast, big-wave surfers challenge nature's greatest forces simply for the rush.
Super Germ: Minute and lethal, viruses can evolve rapidly into new, highly infectious strains—including swine flu.
Southern Right Whales: Once hunted to the brink of oblivion, the southern right whales of the Auckland Islands are recovering despite the odds.
Cook Islands: Instead of seasons, Cook Islanders step out their year in a calendar of festivals that hark back to pre-European traditions.
Huskies: Every year sled-dogs and their owners gather to race in the mountains of the Pisa Range, using skills not far removed from those of the polar pioneers.
