Backcountry New Zealand

Backcountry New Zealand is committed to its clients, it is important that your experience in New Zealand is memorable and exceeds your expectations. We have been operating guiding services since 1995, and have been recreating and working in the New Zealand backcountry for as long as we can remember.

Getting our clients into areas that are unique and far from the maddening crowds is an important focus for us. We are able to achieve this through our relationships with private landowners and knowledge of our local area. Our clients to guide ratios are low so we can deliver a personalized, informative and rewarding experience. All backcountry guides have extensive experience and qualifications.
