Kia Ora tour March/April 2017 in New Zealand. Hike to the "Bridge to Nowhere"
So beautiful!
A magical spot in Whanganui National Park. So much history and stories to be told.
The Bridge-to-Nowhere is one of 3 sister bridges (the others are the Bridge-to-Somewhere and the Bridge-to-Elsewhere). We went to see it with the Bridge to nowhere tour guides. Absolutely brilliant! We chose to stay overnight in the lodge and could have stayed there forever

8.2/10 Very Good! (1,000 reviews)
Staff were very pleasant. We were a little disappointed with the room - fridge, kettle, cups and one teaspoon provided but no detergent or cloths to clean them. The bathroom was compact, as was the bedroom (maybe remove the 2 large chairs and replace them with something that takes less room?).
