West Coast Treetop Walk and Cafe

Wonderful to see this new attraction to the area as Jo and I use to live right beside Lake Mahinapua and love the area. On the way from Hokitka to Franz Josef, it is possible to experience wandering along a steel platform 20 metres high and over 450 metres long among temperate rainforest giants in the ancient Rimu and Kamahi tree canopy.
