The Franz Joseph Glacier is located in the heart of the Southern Alps. Even though the glacier is shrinking slightly each year, it can be seen from quite some distance away.
If you want to be able to observe the glacier and its blue-tinged reflections, get yourself a pair of binoculars.
The most famous glacier in New Zealand, only 19 km from the sea. A popular tourist attraction during a stay in New Zealand.
To get an amazing view of the snow-capped peaks, take a little walk next to Lake Matheson or Okarito beach.
