Springfield is a small Selwyn settlement at the western edge of the Canterbury Plains, where flat farmland gives way to the foothills of the Southern Alps. Once called Kowai Pass, it is the last town before Porters Pass on the Great Alpine Highway and a gateway to the Craigieburn ski fields and Arthur's Pass beyond. It is best known for its giant pink doughnut, first put up in 2007 to promote The Simpsons Movie and now a favourite road-trip photo stop.
