Hakatere Conservation Park Brochure And Hakatere Conservation Ō Tū Wharekai wetland Park restoration project Hakatere Conservation Park is part of one of the best wetlands in the country. A national MID CANTERBURY wetland restoration project was started in 1997 and involves three premier sites: Whangamarino in Waikato, Awarua/Waituna in Southland and Ō Tū Wharekai here in Canterbury. The rivers, lakes, tarns and swamps of Ō Tū Wharekai have their own special range of species; some of which are rare, for example our kettle holes are home to 23 threatened plants. Although each wetland habitat is unique, all waterways are interconnected, breathing life into the Hakatere basin. To learn more, visit www.doc.govt.nz/otuwharekai Above: Swin River.

Universidade de Coimbra Mestranda em Gestão e Planeamento em Turismo. Universidade de Aveiro [email protected] Paulo Carvalho Doutor em Geografia Departamento de Geografia e Turismo; CEGOT; Universidade de Coimbra [email protected] Resumo A produção de obras cinematográficas é hoje uma das ferramentas de marketing mais poderosa para o aumento do fluxo de visitantes, e a criação de estratégias para atrair produções audiovisuais é uma das tendências mais importantes do mercado turístico mundial. É, portanto, no contexto do turismo de cinema, que decorre esta reflexão que consiste, por um lado, na apresentação do estado da arte sobre o tema e, por outro, na análise de um estudo de caso, que irá incidir nas adaptações cinematográficas de uma trilogia de obras literárias. A nossa escolha recaiu, então, sobre os filmes The Lord of the Rings, pois trata-se de um caso de sucesso no âmbito do cinema e do turismo, tendo colocado a Nova Zelândia no mapa dos novos destinos de turismo de cinema. Palavras-chave: Cinema; Turismo de Cinema; The Lord of the Rings; Waikato; Nova Zelândia. Abstract The production of cinematographic works is today one of the most powerful marketing tools to increase the flow of visitors, and creating strategies to attract audiovisual productions is one of the most important trends of the global tourism market. It is, therefore, in the context of the film tourism, which runs this reflection which consists, on the one hand, in presenting the state of the art on the subject and, on the other, in the analysis of a case study, which will focus on the film adaptations of a trilogy of literary works.

  • As the Nzski CEO James Coddington Looked out Over the Spectacular Vista Afforded by the Remarkables
    NZSki “Life As It Ought To Be” As the NZSki CEO James Coddington looked out over the spectacular vista afforded by the Remarkables mountain range - taking in the New Zealand tourist hub of Queenstown - he contemplated the future for his company. “We’re at a tipping point,” he suggested, “things could go either way. We’ve been gradually building momentum over the last few years. But we have to keep moving forward. We certainly have room to cope with more skiers, but if all we do is get more skiers on the mountains we will actually reduce the customer experience from what it is now. That will mean less skiers in the future, a weakened brand, and the undoing of a lot of good work over the last few years.” Figure 1: New Zealand’s Ski Areas NZSki operated 3 skifields – Coronet Peak and the Remarkables in Queenstown and Mount Hutt in Canterbury. Recent growth since Coddington’s appointment in 2007 has been spectacular. The 2009 season was the most successful season on record. As a company, skier/rider numbers were up 29% over 2008 and revenue was up 22% - despite the economic recession. “When I began we were getting 180,000 – 200,000 people a year on Coronet Peak, but now we’re at 330,000. The biggest single day in 2007 saw around 4000 people, but this year we had 7777 people in one day. With our old infrastructure we simply couldn’t have coped – but the completely rebuilt base building, and completion of the snowmaking system and our investments in lift and pass technology have paid huge dividends in protecting the experience.

Several of our high-country lakes are still relatively undisturbed ecosystems with significantly intact ecological values. However, with increasing development and land use intensification, as well as changes in climate, some of our lakes have undergone, or are likely to undergo, significant changes in level regimes, water quality, and ecological condition. The problem: Before establishing the high-country lakes monitoring programme in 2005, we had limited knowledge about the state of our high-country lakes and could not consistently assess potential changes in lake water quality and lake ecological condition.
