In the Maori language, Stewart Island is known
as Rakiura, which translates as ‘the land
of the glowing skies’. This name probably
refers to the aurora australis, an atmospheric
phenomenon which is often seen in the southern
sky. About 85% of the island is a national park
and there’s only one settlement of any size
– Halfmoon Bay (sometimes called Oban),
which offers a variety of accommodation. The majority
of visitors come to hike the well-maintained tracks.
Department of Conservation huts provide accommodation
for overnight hikes. Offshore is Ulva Island,
which is a predator-free bird sanctuary. It is
accessible by water taxi. Functional facts: Approx.
population 420, Department of Conservation Visitor
Centre, ferry service from Bluff.
