Two Squirrels (off Jollies Pass Road) is a cozy stop for scenic Hanmer Springs road photography—use the building, signage, and outdoor seating framed by South Island hills and passing light. Best light comes on clear mornings for crisp textures and on sunset for warm, low-angle glow. Parking is typically close to the venue; it’s an easy, no-entry-requirement stop.
