    15min forest loop with some large and very large trees and ferns. One of them is 1000years! There are many benches to sit and admire. Worth the detour. There's a shorter wheelchair/stroller accessible loop version.

    Lovely coastal cliff and beach walk. Recorded in part on my fitbit on 20-05-2019 and uploaded to Wikiloc. This is the area where the earthquake struck in 2016. The seabed rose up to 5.5 metres in places. Big seal colony.

    Short walk that leads you to an observation point with views to the moraine and Mt Cook on clear days. If you are doing the Hooker Valley track, this is easilly dismissable. And, no Keas!!! :(
