If your planning your trip this is a well set out site, just remember there are all the little things to see and do between these top 20 and a lot of them you don't need to be particularly fit or active to still come and enjoy :-)
'Trip Advisor' is also a great place to look and plan.

These amazing attractions on New Zealand's West Coast region are a must-visit for all South Island travellers.
