Kahikatea Walk.
Kahikatea Walk

Located in Peel Forest Park Scenic Reserve in the Canterbury region

This flat easy track takes you through forest and wetlands.

This track offers flat easy walking, with boardwalks over wetter areas. The saw pits found in this area are a reminder of why just a remnant of the kahikatea swamp forest remains.

This track can be accessed from near the camping ground at Clarke Flat or the roadside at Te Wanahu Flat.

9.5 km north of Geraldine, turn off SH72 (Inland Scenic Route) into Peel Forest Road, which becomes Rangitata Gorge Road. Clarke Flat and Te Wanahu Flat are 600 m apart on Rangitata Gorge Road, approximately 14 km from SH72.
