Routeburn Track (At least to Harris Saddle and back)
Part of the Routeburn Great Walk in Otago, I only had a day and one car so I couldn't go to the end. Most fit walkers I talked to said you can easily do it in a day.

Roy's Peak
A very worthwhile walk to get to that famous view! It's tough on the knees & quite relentless, but the outlook makes it all worthwhile. The lookout is where most hikers stop, but the actual peak is a further 40 minutes - 1 hour further on.
