Description
Walk amongst ancient New Zealand rainforest at the West Coast Treetop Walk in Hokitika. This unique treetop adventure takes you high into the tree canopy on a walkway suspended 20 metres above the ground. Rated the number one tree walk in New Zealand’s South Island, this is one of the best things to do on the West Coast!
The West Coast Treetop Walk is located just outside the small township of Hokitika, approximately a 30 minute drive from Greymouth. A truly magical experience, the treewalk takes you along a 20 metre high walkway through giant Rimu and Kamahi trees. With an easily accessible walkway and the option to climb up the 47 metre Hokitika Tower, the West Coast Treetop Walk is fun for all the family!
If you are seeking a thrill and choose to climb the Hokitika Tower, you will be rewarded with spectacular views across the wild West Coast of New Zealand’s South Island. There is also a Cantilever feature on the walkway, where you can sway in motion with the trees on the Mahinapua Springboard. From here, you can glimpse the beautiful Lake Mahinapua from between the entwined branches of the prehistoric West Coast rainforest.
The West Coast Treetop Walk takes approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour to complete. This leaves you with plenty of time to recharge at the Mahinapua Cafe or explore the surrounding areas of Hokitika and Greymouth.
