Explore ancient forests on a guided walk in Wainuiomata Regional ParkStep into a world few get to see. This exclusive guided walk takes you deep into a 1,000-year-old forest in Wainuiomata Regional Park—an area normally closed to the public. Wander beneath towering native rātā and rimu trees and discover a sanctuary for North Island brown kiwi and other native birds.
Led by one of our experienced park rangers, you’ll hear stories about the park’s natural heritage, conservation efforts, and the history that makes this place so special.
