Gold found in the Hog Burn in 1863 once swelled it to thousands of miners with fourteen hotels; today the historic streetscape and surrounding Naseby Forest draw cyclists, walkers and history seekers. Its hard frosts make it New Zealand's curling capital, home to the southern hemisphere's only dedicated indoor curling rink alongside an outdoor ice luge and skating in winter.
