Castle Hill

#summervacay Castle Hill is a surreal and spiritual landscape of massive limestone boulders located along the Great Alpine Highway between Christchurch and Arthur’s Pass. It's a favorite among rock climbers, photographers, and walkers. The area’s nickname—“spiritual center of the universe”—comes from its dramatic appearance and peaceful aura. Summer is perfect for exploring the area in warm, dry conditions and enjoying a picnic among the rocks. With its film-worthy scenery (featured in The Chronicles of Narnia), Castle Hill is a magical, easy stop that leaves a lasting impression.
