Great. Your place is so easy to walk and welcoming. Enjoyed ourselves as we visited with family from NC, USA

A must do

Sushila_A, Feb 2025
An absolute must do. Using the walkway at your own pace above the canopy gives you a unique perspective of the forest. Useful pamphlet with information at various stops very useful. Great cafe at the base was excellent.

Zip line was really fun

Emma_B, Jan 2025
A wonderful few hours here… felt very safe so high up. We paid extra to add in the zip line-47 meters high! Easy to book

Tree top Walk

Nice walk to break our journey over to Blenheim. Lovely views but overall I think it was expensive for the experience

Response from Host, Jan 2025

On top of the world!

I had to conquer my fear of heights to do this walk! Very exhilarating once I got the hang of it. Great views across the tree tops. Lots of great information all the way round of the trees and birdlife.

Response from Host, Nov 2024

Lovely views, good to see a different side of the Wedt Coast. Climbed the tower and friends did the zip line which they loved

expensive for what it is

Alice_C, Mar 2024
very cool idea and the views are amazing but very expensive for a quick walk around the top of the trees. Was fun though and the staff were lovely

Great Experience and Fantastic Views

David_a, Jan 2024
We thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The weather was fantastic, the scenery was stunning. Although they were understaffed, we had prompt, friendly, and experienced staff. Fantastic coffee and iced chocolate at the end! :-)

Wonderful experience

Nice drive to the destination, beautiful sights and friendly staff, definitely a place to put on your list of things to do when on the West Coast

AMAZING

Dawn_J, Dec 2023
Staff were amazing and helpful, the West Coast Tree Top Walk Experience was surreal and very peaceful listening to all the birds, and looking at all the natural flora would highly recommend, also lovely cafe and gift shop.

Enjoyed our walk

YEWMENG_L, May 2022
Nice & quiet environment to enjoy the beautiful nature. The place is not as big as the one at Albany, Australia.

Awesome experience for gardeners with own native garden

Eileen_B, Dec 2021
My husband and I loved this walk. We are very passionate about big native trees, especially Rimus (which are my favorite). It was absolutely fabulous for me especially, to be high up in the canopy
