Jasper Creek Walk

Jasper Creek Walk is your morning stroll while camping in paradise. The walk starts at Hotoritori Campsite up the Kauaeranga Valley and passes through regenerating tōtara, rimu, tōwai and kahikatea, with several species of fungi and ground orchids growing alongside. The walk finishes back at the road, just by the campsite.

In summer look out for guided twilight tours by the local DoC ranger. Engage your senses as the night settles and see glow worms and other night natives!
