Introducing Haast Region
The Haast region is a major nature refuge with enormous stands of rainforest thriving alongside extensive wetlands. The area’s kahikatea and flame-red rimu forests, swamps, sand dunes, seal and penguin colonies, bird life and sweeping beaches ensured its inclusion in the Southwest New Zealand (Te Wahipounamu) World Heritage Area. Birding buffs might see fantails, bellbirds, kereru (NZ pigeons), falcons, kaka, kiwi and morepork.
