According to Maori legend, the South Island was formed when Maui's waka (canoe), was torn to shreds on the coastal reefs during a fishing trip. The tip of the waka was transformed into the towering peaks of Nelson, and the prow into the submerged river valleys of the Marlborough Sounds. The South Island is more temperate, contrasting the gently rolling hills and pastures of the east of the island with the alpine splendour of mountains, glaciers and fiords on the west coast. Queenstown is the centre for sports and adventure activities, as well as the gateway to some of New Zealand's finest walking tracks.
