Our Fullday walk ,20 kilometers we encounter many different associations of forest

From regenerating forest to mature 1200year old Kauri Trees.

Agnes from the California USA was amazed at the fruit in the forest.

Bush Lawyer (Rubus cissoides) is a vine that climbs trees,it is very stout and thick.

It flowers September to November,then Fruits November to April.

At the moment the fruit is in abundance.

Puketi Forest birds have more fruit available through the predator control

being undertaken in the forest.

Today we guided a group off the cruise ship Volendam on a Eco Tour of the Puketi Forest Nature Trail.

Awesome weather,we split them into two groups. We started with naming the seedling trees ,ferns and other Flora.We followed the trail winding down hill gently through more mature trees.

Finally we reached a platform built amongst the mature Kauri trees.

Our return trail took us through mature stands of hardwoods and soft woods.

Finally we catered for the group at the forest bunk house/cook house .

Sadly our coach driver Tony is leaving the area to further his career.
