Tour overview

Brook Waimarama Sanctuary

With the establishment and development of the Brook Waimarama Sanctuary there is a determined effort by hundreds of volunteers to trap noxious animals, cut and form trapping and walking tracks, educate students and visitors at the same time raise funds for the erection of a surrounding pest proof fence.

The reward for all this hard work is a revitalised eco system as it was pre-immigrant time with healthy populations of giant earth worms, insects, and birdlife and conditions suitable for the reintroduction of kiwi and tuatara.

For those folk with limited time who wish to explore the diversity of a New Zealand forest with an easy walk, this half day journey focuses on flora and fauna and the traditional uses of many of our plants.
