Fox Glacier is located on the west coast of the South Island. I first took the alpine view train from Christchurch to Greymouth. The train station changed to Fox Town. It took a long time to cross the South Island from east to west. In fact, if there is no train plot suggestion, go directly to the bus, then the alpine landscape train has no special scenery along the way, train tickets are still expensive. The back section of the bus has been driving in the mountains, and the mobile phone is in a signal-free state throughout the whole process. If the self-driving anchor, how can I ask for help? The closer to Fox, the rain is getting bigger and bigger, and it's heartbreaking. The bus will go first to franz josef and then to fox, the former town looks bigger and lively, and there are glaciers. Fox is really small and small. Under the introduction, generally go to these two places to go to the glacier to hike, and if it rains, the helicopter will definitely not play. The probability of rain over there is estimated that there are not good weather for a few days in a year, and the glacier where it does not rain. The guide there said that the rain in the town is 6 meters a year, and the rain in the glacier last year is 11 meters. So everyone is mentally prepared, and you may regret it. I booked helihike in China and booked the first shift of the day. I was afraid that the weather would be bad and changed it later. I was ready to give up the rain that morning, but then suddenly the rain stopped the sun. And even if the big sun is waiting for 5 minutes before my class to confirm that I can fly. Good luck, my class is the only one that flew that day. After going up, it rained thunder and rained, and the next two classes were cancelled. If it is sunny, the glacier hiking must be very enjoyable! I survived in the wilderness with light rain. . . The glacier is still beautiful, and the ice cave is blue and pure. Helicopter hiking is highly recommended, it is a rare experience! Fox Glacier is connected to the rainforest. Remember to walk a few steps from the town at night and there are small woods. There are many glow worm fireflies in it. There are many. Don't turn on the flashlight when you watch.
