I love New Zealand
Haven’t actually been there, but I am planning to go next year, only fair since they’ve named a mountain after me ;). Linz (Land Information New Zealand) just released a new series of 1:50k today, so I headed over expecting it part with a fair amount of cash to buy all the maps I needed to walk the 1800 mile Te Araroa. Much to my delight you can download them all for free!
Good work New Zealand, I only wish more countries would make their maps available for free :)

No shit! That walk looks amazing. I’ve spent a few months in New Zealand, the people and scenery (and surf) are amazing!
