where trout temptingly bask.

Lead us along a sections of the long coast and through coastal
vegetation facing up to the violence of the
Roaring Forties. View points offer panoramas of
lands scared shattered and torn by ice sheets the
ever-moving tectonic plates.
Swamps:-
Board-walks through the fairytale swamps of
the dinosaur rainforest inspire and provide study groups with more insights
into the biology of forest Podocarp rainforest plants.
Forests here have been untouched by man
or animal since the ice sheets left here 14,000 years ago.
Night walk in the rain forest
We confront our
fear of darkness and experience nature at night.
Because New Zealand forests have no dangerous creatures this is a good
chance help each other meet the challenge and enjoy the experience of New
Zealand's amazing
glow-worms.
Studies
Groups use the walks to experience the items that interest them.
Plaques often name the trees for us.
Lake Matheson
We walk through the dinosaur forests on the edge of this
delightful kettle lake.Breathtaking
reflections and unique sounds of the
New Zealand's
rainforests let visitors into more of
nature's charm.
