Remarkables Market

With the Remarkables mountain range looming in the background, the Remarkables Market could well be New Zealand's most picturesque. On arrival buy a coffee (use one of the mugs available at the entrance instead of a takeaway cup), and pick up locally made gifts including handmade candles, photographic prints or woodcrafts. Or, fill a bag with an assortment of treats and baking for a picnic down on the lakeside or some spot up a mountain. Saturday 9am-2pm (October-April). Remarkables Park Red Barn, on Facebook.
