Raspberry Flats
In New Zealand, about 54km from Wanaka is Raspberry Flats. It is only accessible via a single track dust road with numerous fords and river crossings. Damage to vehicles is not uncommon along here and many turn back before reaching their intended destination.
From Raspberry Flats it is possible to access the Rob Roy Glacier and the West Matukituki Valley. However many of these tramps are not to be undertaken lightly for the routes are treacherous and snow and avalanches are commonplace. Despite all this, those who make the effort are justly rewarded with spectacular views and are able to immerse themselves in the natural wilderness, typical of that found across this area of the South Island of New Zealand .
