Glacier Country Newcomers Network

From the mountains to the sea, Glacier Country offers something for everyone.

Fox Glacier and Franz Josef Glacier are the most accessible rivers of ice in the world, plunging down through rainforest almost to sea level.

We have beautiful wetlands, beaches, grasslands, lakes, mountains and forests of Westland Tai Poutini National Park and the northern part of the UNESCO World Heritage Area, Te Wahipounamu right on our doorstep–and welcoming locals waiting to make you feel at home!

Unfortunately, there is currently no Newcomers Network Coordinator for this region.  

For settlement support information, immigration advice, and connection to services in this region, please contact the Fox Glacier Community Development Society.
