RV Travel Lifestyle

RV Travel Lifestyle, New Zealand’s longest-running NZ-owned motorhome travel publication. We visit NZ’s most beautiful spots north to south from Cape Reinga to Stewart Island and everywhere in between. Hire or buy an RV for an amazing way to explore our pristine and often wild places. We visit cycleways, historic and cultural sites, Department of Conservation parks, stunning beach and mountain destinations to inspire our readers, along with major cities and small towns, and showcase activities from fishing to motor racing, wine tours to music festivals and shopping. We review RVs, and travellers share their experiences. An excellent publication for those travelling around New Zealand to self-drive an RV or car, and see the best NZ can offer.

Renting the RV

Wonders of the West Coast • From pancake rocks, lush-palm-lined roads and underground caves, to watching fur seals frolic in the wild ocean – the South Island’s West Coast has many surprises.

A Great Walk An Island in the Hills • Gary maps the Island Hills Station Walk – a private high-country track offering a back-country adventure coupled with retreat-like comforts.

Take the long way • Allan Dick drives from Ōamaru to Dunedin using all the back roads he can find. It’s a fascinating and lovely drive that takes three days!

Wildlife Regeneration • A forested oasis with a lake and extensive wetlands, nestled in the Taranaki hill country, is protected by a predator-free fence and is home to a number of rare New Zealand birds.

Into history and up a creek • Alex and Lesley Stone explore the Whangateau Estuary and Omaha River

Walking the Golden Stairs • Remote and beautiful countryside, stunning views, sparkling waters, picnicking on an empty beach – it is all ample reward for the five hours of tough tramping needed to walk the Golden Stairs.

Motu Trails Adventurous Spirit • Motu Trails offers superb journeys through places little-changed by time, writes Jim Robinson.
