New Zealand during winter?
Hello all, just came back from my Andean trip and I'm thinking about next holidays, also if august 2010 is really far.
One of the alternatives for 2010 is New Zealand, but I have a great doubt: climate.
Temperatures don't seem to be too low, as far as I read: minimum near 0° celsius also in the coldest cities. Rain, when not constant during days, is not a problem.
But what about landscapes and the passability of mountain roads? I wouldn't come there to find all the best alpine roads closed, and low clouds hiding any landscape, during all my holidays...
What's your opinion or suggestion?
Please, note that I can have 3 or more weeks of holiday only during august.
My alternatives? Australian coast to coast and a more challenging Tashkent (Uzbekistan)-Ulan Bator (Mongolia), but as I just arrived very tired from Andes, I prefer to think to more relaxing trip, at the moment. Adventurist soul probably will awake in some week...
