Lake Moeraki Wilderness Lodge

World-Class Nature Lodge in a UNESCO World Heritage Setting

Wilderness Lodge Lake Moeraki offers a rare opportunity to secure one of New Zealand’s most spectacular wilderness tourism assets. Located on the West Coast beside the Moeraki River and State Highway 6, the lodge spans 4.2507ha (more or less) across two titles in an exceptional natural environment. Surrounded by lakes, rivers, rainforest and the rugged seacoast of Te Wahipounamu – a Southwest New Zealand World Heritage Area – it delivers an unrivalled nature-based tourism experience.

The lodge features 28 well-appointed guest rooms positioned beside river rapids or native gardens, supported by contemporary styling, warm hospitality, quality cuisine and specialist guided activities. Operated by the current owners for more than 30 years, it continues to perform strongly with long-standing global recognition. It may be acquired individually or alongside Wilderness Lodge Arthur’s Pass to create a multi-site South Island eco-tourism portfolio.

Offered as a freehold going concern with vacant possession, Lake Moeraki is strategically placed to capture growing demand for premium experiential tourism.
