• The Arataki Centre: First, visit this center perched high on a ridge. It offers panoramic views spanning from the Tasman Sea to the Pacific Ocean.

• Ancient Rainforests: Next, walk along easy bush tracks among giant tree ferns. You will even get to view New Zealand’s famous, towering Kauri trees.

• Rugged West Coast: Finally, experience the power of the wild coastline. You can feel the unique black sand beneath your feet as you stroll along awe-inspiring beaches.
