Puketi Forest Nature Walk
Did you know that massive kauri trees once covered most of the Bay of Islands? Growing over 49 meters (164 feet) high these mighty giants are now protected in the Puketi Forest. You can mingle among these towering trees that rival California's redwoods in height and girth on a one-hour guided tour around an approximate one kilometer (approximate one mile) loop. Your adventure begins with a transfer from the wharf to a trailhead at the edge of the forest. Here, you’ll join your guide and set out on a fun and informative walk around the magnificent stands of kauri, podocarp and hardwood trees. Along the way, you’ll learn about the forest’s rich ecological diversity that includes 370 recorded species of plants, some of which are found nowhere else in the world, and how endangered birds such as the toutouwai and kokako are slowly being reintroduced.
