El Camino de Santiago

The 775-kilometre Spanish Pilgrim Trail, which runs from St-Jean Pied-de-Port, on the French side of the Pyrennes, to Santiago De Compostella, on Spain's far north-western coast, attracts tens of thousands of walkers each year. Former nzherald.co.nz news editor Simon Winter took on the trail in 2012 - these photos document some of his journey. <a href='http://www.nzherald.co.nz/walking-the-camino-de-santiago/news/headlines.cfm?c_id=1503255&c2_id=7' target='_blank'>Click here</a> to read Simon's blog about the trip.

Warbirds over Wanaka

Hundreds of aviation enthusiasts turned out to see some impressive aircraft in action yesterday at a preview of the Warbirds over Wanaka show this weekend. The popular event had been grounded for the past six years, partly because of Covid pandemic restrictions. This Easter weekend it returns, with a sellout crowd of more than 60,000 people set to attend today and tomorrow. Photos / George Heard
