Naseby

Known as one of the most charming of the South Island’s gold rush settlements, Naseby offers so much more.

About

Naseby is not just another gold mining town; it also has unexpected attractions and thrills that surprise many of its visitors. Referred to by kiwi natives as the “jewel of Maniototo”, this historic town is located within the Naseby forest. This differentiates Naseby from other towns in that it is geographically located right below the Mt Ida Range, and has more greenery than most gold mining towns. In addition, visitors can admire the beauty of the Victorian architecture constructed from sun dried mud brick and the neighboring Black Forest. Morever, for those who are keen for ice sports, there is a Curling International ice rink which is the largest in the Southern Hemisphere as well as the downhill luge located behind the rink. Spend a few hours in this charming town visiting museums, tennis courts, swimming in the damn, golfing, or walking in the forest; the opportunities are plentiful.
