RV Travel Lifestyle

RV Travel Lifestyle, New Zealand’s longest-running NZ-owned motorhome travel publication. We visit NZ’s most beautiful spots north to south from Cape Reinga to Stewart Island and everywhere in between. Hire or buy an RV for an amazing way to explore our pristine and often wild places. We visit cycleways, historic and cultural sites, Department of Conservation parks, stunning beach and mountain destinations to inspire our readers, along with major cities and small towns, and showcase activities from fishing to motor racing, wine tours to music festivals and shopping. We review RVs, and travellers share their experiences. An excellent publication for those travelling around New Zealand to self-drive an RV or car, and see the best NZ can offer.

MAIL BAG Letters to Ed

A Great Walk on Water • Gary maps the Whanganui Journey – a 3-day or 5-day paddle down the Whanganui River with rapids and calm stretches. It’s a Great Walk on water.

It’s all about the river and the past • Whanganui is one of New Zealand’s oldest cities, and today there are plenty of interesting things to do, and these aren’t confined to the river and the city’s history although both are at the centre of its appeal for visitors.

A Tale of Two Harbours • Linked by a 15-minute drive, Whangaroa and Mangonui Harbours have a whole lot of history but very different vibes today.

THE UPS & DOWNS OF MANGONUI HERITAGE TOWN • A beautiful summer day, a beautiful little town. Mangonui offers a perfect place to stretch your legs, take in the view and have a coffee. The clearly marked heritage trail takes you past well-preserved buildings, up to the top of the hill, along the waterfront and back to café land.

He Hokinga Mahara - A Step back in time • Aotearoa has a long and rich history prior to the arrival of Europeans. Throughout Aotearoa – within our many valleys, sometimes hiding in plain sight – are relics of the precious past waiting to be explored and experienced.

Turquoise Gem of the Mackenzie Country • The natural beauty of the glacier-fed lake, and the sweeping tussock-covered Mackenzie country under a starry sky can take your breath away.

Early Adventures at Aoraki/Mt Cook • Aoraki/Mt Cook – a place to enjoy champagne air among cloud-piercing mountains and to celebrate Sir Edmund Hillary along with other adventurous explorers and mountaineers.

Waikouaiti to Middlemarch • The past and the present coexist in Otago

CONQUERNG MY FEARS • Allan Dick tackles the notorious Waikaia Bush Road from Piano Flat – and lives to tell the story.

A different land • Reminiscences from NZTODAY founder Allan Dick
