Steward Island is the largest of a small cluster of islands located below the South Island. It is very peaceful place mainly inhabited by fishermen. Most of the island has no roads, so it's a good place go tramping, since the big network of tracks across the island can keep you busy for several hours up to 10 days. Moreover, it is a excellent spot for seabirdwacthing too, and if you go to Ulva Island (bird sanctuary) you will be able to meet the weka, a flightless bird that like many other birds in that area are not afraid of people, due to the predator-free environment.
