The Pōhutu Geyser and the Prince of Wales’ Feather in activity #NewZealand #Roadtrip
An early morning walk through the redwoods can’t be beaten 😊 it’s lush, fresh and oh so scenic
An extended walk takes from a few minutes to a full day return. It is suitable for relatively inexperienced people with a low level of backcountry skill. All watercourses are bridged. #roadtrip
The sulphur smell doesn't last as long as you think it will
