Ashburton is 85km south of Christchurch and provides some of the best salmon fishing in NZ along the Rakaia and Rangitata rivers. The rivers are also a popular attraction for keen jet-boaters and whitewater rafters.

Shopping in this service town is abundant and really easy. Ashburton is also a good place to cafe hop - keep your eye out for some local art and craft. Hockey players will love the international-standard hockey pitch. Lake Hood, only five minutes away, has 7km of shoreline and a waterski tournament park.
