I've only ever driven past, but I'm guessing Te Moeka o Tuawe (AKA Fox Glacier)

Thanks John, I wouldn't have got it without the clue, although I have been there (I think) in the '70's. Next, Europe. Where have so many people lost their hats?

Yes, but I'll need you to be more specific. This area has a particular name.
