Reviews of Wilderness Gallery
H.An awesome shop to support the local artists. As an ads Accredited tour guide, I’ve driven pass this city many times but never had the chance to go in. Now I do. Lots of interesting things to sell, price tags are high. I suppose the rent in Hokitika isn’t much as such big shop wouldn’t exist in Auckland. Hope that this shop can survive in this Covid global pandemic.
J.A fantastic gallery run by Juergen Schacke and his wife Monika featuring Juergen's stunning photos and local crafts. They have recently taken over the Craft Gallery next door and both offer riches of local art and crafts, an absolute treat!
C.Thanks for the no pressure and supportive approach to our purchase Juergen and Monika. What a cool place you have - our best wishes to you for your future.
D.When I arrived there was a warm atmosphere. Obviously the place to enjoy a nice coffee. I wasn't disappointed
T.Gorgeous works of art from a variety of local craftspeople/artisans ranging from wood turning and pottery to beautiful pounamu carvings and limestone fossil pendants that are absolutely one of a kind! Owner himself is a fantastic photographer and very knowledgeable and passionate about the area and, of course, art. This gallery was one of our favorite stops during our tour of the west coast and a hidden gem - wholeheartedly recommend.
W.Great shop in Hokitika. Really interesting owner with a real passion for what he's delivering.
B.Amazing art, gifts and homeware, love to have a yarn with Juergen.
T.Fantastic gallery with the art of at least 20 local artists tastefully displayed. Very reasonably priced products. The gallery is owned by a photographer who has a great eye for photos and for discovering quality artists. There were so many items I could have purchased.
A.Lovely gallery with magnificent photography and gifts. Was our 2nd visit - especially sought out this time after our previous visit. Couple who own it are such good fun too. We will definitely return - once this confounded virus is beaten. Best wishes down there folks. We are praying business will recover after all this business. God bless from Anne (Wairarapa) and Vera (Hastings)
D.Great selection of art from unusually good artists. The owner really seems to know his stuff and chooses good artists. We checked out shops all over town and found the things to be much nicer here. The prices seemed reasonable.
A.It's a brilliant gallery featuring prints and photoblocks etc of photos taken by the owner, amongst other wares presented in a creative and aesthetically pleasing way. The goods are high quality and reasonably priced, unlike the boring standard fare found in most giftware stores in NZ.
As an amateur photographer myself, I appreciate the authenticity of Jurgen's photos, which are delightfully free of the common and excessive post-processing and saturation boosts that take away all the magic.
Jurgen and his wife are incredibly friendly and attentive owners as well. Well worth a visit!
C.This is the BEST shop in Hokitika. Has some very unique artwork and pieces that are different to the usual NZ 'knick knacks'. Make sure you stop by here if you're in town!
H.Great gallery and my personal favorite are the fossile necklaces! Nice owner
S.Favourite shop in Hokitika! Amazing gallery, great range of items. Looking forward to getting my prints on the wall and will definitely be back one day again soon!
S.Juergen and Monica were welcoming and helpful. Loved their collection from carefully collected artisans. The nicest store of its kind we’ve seen in NZ.
a.lovely atmosphere. Very friendly, knowledgable proprietor. Beautiful artisan jewellery and crafts. exquisite photos
P.Great pieces representative of New Zealand. Love the selection of different wooden blocks made into kitchen utensils. And the lovely owner only add to the charm.
P.Absolutely amazing!
From the moment we saw the moss covered stepping stone entrance, we knew that Wilderness Gallery would be a creative experience..... and we weren't disappointed!
Juergen's images capture the very essence of New Zealand Wilderness and the heart of the ruggedly beautiful West Coast.
Wilderness Gallery is a delightful collection of original stunning prints, quality jewellery and exquisite woodwork and furniture.
A must do Hokitika experience,

Ein Muss in Hokitika für Liebhaber der schönen Dinge. Einzigartige Bilder, vom Inhaber selbst fotografiert. Wunderbare kleine und größere Kunstgegenstände und Schmuck aus der Region. Zudem einfach super liebe Besitzer. Man fühlt sich gleich rund herum wohl.
Vielen Dank für die netten Gespräche und tolle Beratung. Wir freuen uns sehr über die schönen Mitbringsel von Südinsel. Bis zum nächsten Mal.
A.(Translated) Beautiful photos that are drawn on canvas. Nice jewelry. The owner of the gallery takes the photos himself (landscape and animals). You have to visit this gallery.

Wunderschöne Fotos die auf Leinwand gezogen werden. Schöner Schmuck. Der Inhaber der Galerie macht die Fotos selber (Landschaft und Tier). Diese Galerie muss man besuchen.

h.(Translated) Must go to the sights! ! ! In Queenstown, I saw many vivid bird photography works, which was pleasing to the eye. I found the original in Hokitika. I didn't see the beautiful scenery and creatures I didn't find in NZ, I could meet in this small gallery. Even the beaches of Hokitika and the George River are eclipsed. The owner is a gentle, hospitable and humorous German who should not miss the passing.
U WILL REGRET IF U MISS THIS GREAT PLACE.
(Original)
必去景点！！！在皇后镇就曾看见许多生动的鸟类摄影作品，赏心悦目，到了Hokitika才找到原创。在NZ没看到没找着的美景和生灵，都能在这家小小的画廊遇见。即便是Hokitika的海滩和乔治河与其相比，都黯然失色。店主是个拘谨有礼热情幽默的德国人，走过路过不要错过。
U WILL REGRET IF U MISS THIS GREAT PLACE.
