Next we visit a secret spot where you will witness the best boiling mud pools in NZ.
Next you choose between 2 locations:
1. The awe-inspiring Redwood Forest; Experience the cool and calm created by this unique ecosystem, either on the ground, or by upgrading to the Canopy Treetop Walk: Traversing the swing bridges and walkways high in the forest
