Kauri Trees


"Kauri are among the world's mightiest trees, growing to over 50 meters [164 feet] tall, with trunk girths up to 16 meters [53 feet], and living for over 2,000 years". Read more on the New Zealand Department of Conservation Te Papa Atawhai website. Click HERE




Rats, stoats, and possums are all pests in New Zealand







Simply amazing! Everything in the forest was talking to everything else, and it even felt like the trees were speaking to us through the wooden boardwalk.  Plus we were the only ones there adding to the experience among these giants.

Pure joy!

Trees can be so interesting. I find myself photographing them when hiking.

Thanks for the comment show of love. :) These trees are amazing, and it is encouraging me to visit the redwoods for a hike. Want to join us?
