Methven, the future set for some scenes of LOTR seems a beautiful place, much like most of New Zealand 🙂


Methven

Methven: Inland from Ashburton on the South Island. A good centre for the Canterbury Plains or the mountains. a small town, Methven is quiet for most of the year, coming alive in winter when it fills up with skiers using it as a base for Mt Hutt and other ski areas.
