High Country Salmon is a boutique, 100% New Zealand family-owned salmon farm, floating café & restaurant, fish shop & deli and fishing experience, situated 3km south of Twizel on New Zealand’s South Island.
They grow premium glacial mountain salmon (chinook or king salmon) in the hydro canal system – this constant flow of clean water means that their salmon are fitter than sea-run salmon, resulting in firmer flesh and a cleaner, more delicate flavour. They do everything on-site, resulting in the shortest supply chain possible and the freshest salmon available.
Visitors to High Country Salmon have a range of things to do; sample the amazing cuisine during the day or evening from Logans floating café & restaurant, feed the salmon (for free) on the deck, purchase salmon, deli foods, kitchenware or merchandise from the fish shop & deli, or even catch your own salmon! There is plenty of parking, and the scenery is spectacular!
