Karori Wildlife Sanctuary
31 Waiapu Road, Karori, Wellington, New ZealandTel: +64 (0)4 920 9200 • Web: Visit this site »
The Karori Wildlife Sanctuary is an ambitious 250 hectare project intended to restore and protect native flora and fauna within the city environment. A ground-breaking fence to deter predators has been especially designed and constructed and a weka breeding program is well established. Kiwis were recently released in the area, and visitors can also catch a glimpse of the famous tuataras- native only to New Zealand. The secluded inner city valley will eventually incorporate educational facilities and a network of tracks. A must when visiting New Zealand's capital city! Open for guided walks on Sundays. It is essential to book ahead.
Admission: Adults NZD 8; children NZD 4.
