Tourist Guide

amazing clay cliffs between Omarama and Mount Cook - worth the drive off the main road - lots of different colors of clay and the red fruit in the foreground are on the sweet briar rosehip bushes a plant that was introduced to NZ by the settlers
lots of exploring to be done at the clay cliffs after a quick detour off the main paved road you will take a gravel road along the river to reach the cliffs
a quick detour off the main road will get you right up to the cliffs, we went after some pretty heavy weather so it was good and slippery when we went and we got covered in clay exploring

We had a ‘cube’… The rooms were so dirty, the sheets clearly were not washed and had stains on. There were dead bugs everywhere, a dead mosquito and moth fell onto the bottom bunk as I was lying down. As you drive in it looks run down from old/abandoned caravans.
