HUGO'S local tips
Sightseeing
Superb well constructed trail through beautiful bush to the Tutea Falls (approx 30 min return). Look for rafts negotiating the 7m drop & then follow the steep steps down to a large cave.
Option to continue further down the trail to the Trout Pool (add an extra 20-30 mins) popular fishing spot.

Spectacular activity particularly in the dark (Nightlights). Walk along suspension bridges linked between amazing redwood trees and marvel at a variety of light shows. Allow 30 mins, however be prepared to queue for much longer.
