Kahurangi National Park

The park spans from Golden Bay in the North, to Murchison in the South, the latter making an excellent base point.

White-water Rafting

Thrills range from family friendly to downright terrifying. Graded two to four, choose your adventure.

Maruia Falls

Easily accessible from the SH 65, these powerful must-see falls are on the Maruia River, a 5-minute walk from the parking.

Buller Gorge Adventure and Heritage Park

Soar over Buller River on a 160m flying fox, thrash up the river in a jet boat, teeter across the swing bridge and embark on walks.

Natural Flames Experience

Believe it or not, a natural flame has been burning in the forest for a century. Join a four-hour walking and 4WD tour to see for yourself.

The Old Ghost Road

One of the country's leading back-country tracks, the course runs from Lyell to Seddonville over five days.
