    An amazing and very unique place to visit.

    A bush clad gorge filled with huge fluted basalt boulders. We intended to stay one night, but stayed for two after realizing the extent of this attraction. Spent several hours visiting all the trails, and also climbed up through the farm to see the 'Majic Rock'. Plenty of space for camping or parking, Good toilets and hot showers. Highly recommend.

    Amazing place!

    Such a cool property to go exploring on. Love how they have added all the little funny things to find along the walk. Super nice star gazing at night to top it off. Facilities are basic but clean with a flushing toilet. The Scottish owner was super friendly giving us a bowl full of eggs. Highly recommended for a night or 2

    You must go here!

    This place is incredible. Not only can you come for the day but they have paid camping as well, which we highly recommend. Great toilets, filtered water, a cute cafe on site and a range of farm animals. The walk up to magic rock is well worth it. Also be sure to find the swimming hole and cool off after your hike. The owners are extremely friendly. Incredible family run business that you must check out.

    Absolutely amazing location and brilliant place to camp with parking and picnic tables.

    The hosts were incredibly welcoming and friendly! Unbelievable view from atop the "magic boulder" and a glorious little swimming hole within the boulders walk.

    Brilliant hosts!

    Really enjoyed the campsite. It was great for star gazing in beautiful surroundings.

    The boulders were impressive. Photos don't do them justice! Really interesting reading about how they were formed. Lots to explore including a swimming hole. The gravel road is no problem to drive just take your time and enjoy the views.

    It is a nature path created by a Swiss couple, we paid $15 and it was well worth it.

    It was nice to walk through a landscape made with so much love. Really, really beautiful.

    One of the most beautiful places i ever visited.

    Very nice landscape and a big number of trees, bushes and fern. A well constructed walking path indcluding bridges and stairs runs from the parking space to the plattform with a great overview over the valley. I enjoyed the pure nature and the tranquillity of this wonderful place.

    A 2 hour track following a creak, passing over loat of wooden bridges and stairs!

    Walking among the native forest of New Zealand, admiring the force of nature, and, finally, the view from the top part of the track with all those boulders, it was amazing!
