가족여행 피로회복

마운트쿡에서 이틀밤을 머물며 많은 트랙을 다녀왔어요. 특히 레드탄이 천개 넘는 계단이라 다리가 많이 아파 피로회복을 위해 방문했습니다. 한여름 온수풀이 너무 덥지 않을까 걱정했는데 전혀 그렇지 않았습니다. 20대 아들 10대 딸 모두 현지 청소년들과 워터건을 주고받으며 즐거워했어요. 어른도 쾌적하고 편안한 분위기에서 잠시 여행의 피로를 풀기에 아주 좋습니다. 스탭들 매우 친절하며 낯설었던 샤워 탈의 시스템도 금세 익숙해졌어요. 근처 라카이아 고르게가 은근 비경이니 구경다녀온 후에 들르면 좋습니다. 바로 옆 스키타임리조트 레스토랑도 강추합니다. 아시안이 드물어서인지 외려 더 극진하게 대접합니다.

Just do it!

Travel to scenic Methven and enjoy the beauty of the area and relax in the beautiful warm water. I took two others that were unsure they wanted to attend but they loved it and raved about our outing.

Lazy River

Loved our time at Opuke Thermal Pools - great bathroom/shower facilities which are clean and come with free secure lockers! The lazy river was a highlight of our pool time and appreciated all of the different pools, temperatures, and layouts to explore. Great cafe for a break from the water - definitely recommend!

Relaxing experience

Lovely pools, Lovely setting. Obviously needed to read description better. Expected some minerals, but just clear clean water as in swimming pool, heated by solar farm. Compact venue. Lovely cafe, yummy food, great helpful staff.
