    Beautiful bush. Ladies at the desk where amazing. Food in the Cafe was really nice. Couldn't see a lot of the animals but we did get a close up view of a kiwi in the kiwi house, foraging right in front of the viewing window

    This is a great place for a walk and to experience NZ native birds. We had a picnic outside and were joined by two cheeky kaka who wanted to help themselves to our food. We did the summit walk and it was pretty easy. We did it in an hour but it says two-potentially we didn't stop enough!
