Zealandia: The Karori Sanctuary Experience, Wellington

The Zealandia 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 that are native only to New Zealand. The secluded inner city valley will eventually incorporate educational facilities and a network of tracks. A must visit when visiting New Zealand's capital city!  The visiting hours vary seasonally, for specific timings check the website or call ahead.
