Introducing Hanmer Springs

Hanmer Springs, the main thermal resort on the South Island, is 10km off SH7. Visitors swell the population year-round, as Hanmer is a weekend destination for Christchurch folk. It’s a pleasantly low-key spot to indulge in pampering in the hot pools and a flash new spa complex. Grown-ups will enjoy a couple of good restaurants, and family-friendly activities include forest walks, minigolf, horse treks and jetboating.
