Scarborough

The hillside town of Scarborough stands as an extension of its parent city, Christchurch. Named after the actual town in North Yorkshire, England, it’s the ideal gateway to call home when visiting Christchurch and the outdoor regions that surround it. Take a trip via the TranzAlpine train to the scenic Southern Alps, where you’ll discover rainforests and large glaciers to climb. You can also take to Hagley Park, a reserve home to a botanic garden and plenty of recreational venues. Scarborough is home to dramatic coastline, with a sandy beach that stretches all the way to the end of the cove. As such, it’s a great place to enjoy hearty picnics under the sun. Go and explore Scarborough and the pretty features it offers; you’ll be rewarded with vibrant memories.
