Redemption Hill was a New Zealand reality series that followed 10 teenagers identified as being likely to enter a life of crime. The teenagers were selected from a call for participants throughout New Zealand, many nominated by their parents [1]

Redemption Hill involved a course of discipline and adventure activities, as organised by a "warden" (Steve Boxer). It also involved time behind bars in Napier prison, which was decommissioned in 1993 and subsequently turned into a tourist attraction.

The show was filmed on location in Napier at New Zealand's oldest prison Redemption Hill, Hence the name.
