Castle Hill, also kn

Castle Hill, also known as Kura Tawhiti by the indigenous Maori Tribe Ngai Tahu, is one of the most popular stops on the scenic Arthur's Pass Drive. This iconic setting was used as the backdrop for a battle in the movie The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. It also appears in the iconic Lord of the Rings scene where the Fellowship take rest amongst a rocky plateau en route to the Misty Mountains. This area is known as one of the world's best bouldering locations, and climbers flock here to challenge their skills. #newzealand #travel #castlehill
