Difficulty of the walk:
Please note the guided walk is designed to keep the rainforest in it’s pristine state, as the region is part of the Westland National Park. This means there’s some roots throughout the track, and a couple of big steps early on.
Your skipper & tour guides walk the track with the group, and can lend a hand to assist during the walk. There’s many stops throughout to discuss the rainforest and the conservation.
There’s a couple of set handlines and walking poles available if you require them.
The track itself is 400 meters, and if often only enjoyed 1 way (you’re skipper will pick you up at the end).
For any other questions about the guided walk, feel free to contact our friendly team!
