Te Hīkoi Museum - Riverton

The 'Riviera of the South' offers beautiful beaches, walks and a relaxed vibe in the historic township of Riverton/Aparima. A relaxing day trip from Invercargill, and a 'must stop' if your journey is taking you west along the Southern Scenic Route.

Te Hīkoi Museum on Palmerston Street can provide local information on walks as well as an exceptional small museum experience and gift shop.

The museum features authentic life size displays, adventurous characters and engaging stories - these reveal how Māori and European settlers adapted to survive on nature's edge.  The museum takes about an hour including a 15 minute introduction film, and also includes a dedicated geology room - perfect if you want to know more about the stones at nearby gemstone beach. They also have a regular rotation of changing temporary exhibitions - well worth the entry fee.

Distinction Invercargill Hotel offers luxury accommodation in Invercargill, your base for exploring Riverton/Aparima. Contact our helpful team for more information or visit the Te Hīkoi Museum & Information Centre website.
