Summary edit

Description
English: At Franz Josef village on our way to Queenstown from Hokitika on the West Coast on our third day of my friends from the UK, trip around the South Island. It was a long day of travelling but saw so many interesting places on the way to Queenstown.

November 4, 2013 New Zealand.

The Franz Josef (Ka Roimata o Hinehukatere in Māori) is a 12 km (7.5 mi) long glacier located in Westland Tai Poutini National Park on the West Coast of New Zealand's South Island. Together with the Fox Glacier 20 km (12 mi) to the south, it is unique in descending from the Southern Alps to less than 300 metres (980 ft) above sea level, amidst the greenery and lushness of a temperate rainforest.

The area surrounding the two glaciers is part of Te Wahipounamu, a World Heritage Site park. The river emerging from the glacier terminal of Franz Josef is known as the Waiho River. For More Info: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Franz_Josef_Glacier
