New Zealand
Closer to the South Pole than the Equator, the intense winds at the South Island's most southern point have sculpted a forest into surreal shapes.
Due to the unbroken sea between Slope Point and Antarctica, the area receives intense and uninterrupted Antarctic wind. To protect their sheep, farmers planted trees to provide a windbreak, but over a century of savage weather has warped and tangled the tiny forest into a thing of surreal beauty. While photographing the trees is what brings most visitors, Slop Point's geographic location is an attraction in itself. Located 5140 km south of the Equator and 4803 km (there's a road sign), this is the most southern point on New Zealand's south island.
