Just a stone’s throw away
McLaren Falls Park is just 2 kms away
with falls, boating, tramping, swimming,
trout fishing, and hostels.
Marshall’s Animal Park,
right next to to McLaren Falls,
is 35 acres of friendly animals and fun.
Several different breeds of sheep,
deer, goats, birds and pigs, plus llamas,
Tibetan yaks, African ostriches, Texas longhorns,
rabbits, chinchillas, possums and much more.
And did we mention the horses –
from mighty shire horses to cute miniatures?
Mossops Honey features a bee room
with live bee display and oodles of information
on honey and the hive. They also sell honey (of course),
honey-based gifts, confectionery and skincare products.
A few stone throws away
We highly recommend the unspoiled
Kaimai Mamaku Forest Park, which holds
37,000 hectares of rare New Zealand birdlife, unusual
and rare plant species, and jaw-droppingreminders
of the massive logging and mining history
of this region.
Sapphire Springs, set on 78 acres of scenic forest and bush,
offers a more relaxed alternative. With loads of bushwalks,
a playground for the kids, glow worms, mini-golf, and caravan
and tent sites, it’s the perfect location for a family holiday or visit.
Kaimai Cheeses – SH27 at Waharoa, just north of Matamata,
replica 1920s butter factory, watch cheese making process,
café, shop for cheese
