We are driving from Queenstown to Dunedin and subsequently will be heading back up to Christchurch. There appear to be a couple of different routing options, one that comes out a little south of Dunedin.
Any recommendations which route to drive?

East of Queenstown, you take the north fork to Route 85, or the south fork to Route 8. There is not a huge difference in distance either way, but I think that Route 85 is a better road and will get you there a little faster.
