Hi there,
We're on the lookout for the most beautiful spots in New Zealand, and would love to hear your favourites.
While it will be impossible to include all of them in one article, we'd appreciate your help in narrowing it down. What do you think are most beautiful places in NZ's regions? Do you have a favourite spot in the Waikato, Taranaki, Canterbury, Southland or elsewhere?
Feel free to comment below, send me a message or email me at lorna.thornber@stuff.co.nz. Please include 'NFP' in your comment if you do not want it or your name included in an article. Thanks in advance for taking the time to share.

Speaking of which, what's up with the major repair work presently being undertaken on Glenvar Road, please inform the thousands of residence who are affected by the ineptitude of Waka Kotahi which decision maker (please stand up) within Waka Kotahi decided that while the road lets not use our common sense and proceed with the long overdue 15yr plan to straighten and align Glenvar with Lonely Track, put in the Traffic Lights, and carry out your civic duty to do the best possible job that you've been elected to do, surely this is a "no Brainer"
