redwoods whakarewarewa forest

Beautiful Redwood we enjoyed the 40 minutes scenic walk .. tranquil and quiet .. not commercially crowded and 'touristy'

Loved it, pleasant weather, not too many people around. We went to the visitor centre to get some information about the walk paths. We followed their suggestion and loved the walk. The trees are huge!! Well marked routes.

Great tracks. Little difficult to navigate but super popular so easy to get home using locals knowledge.

Wonderful to walk around the Redwoods & enjoy the cool rest on logs. Granddaughter had just one complaint that she didn't see a Kiwi! (And she looked very hard too)

If you're traveling without your own transport you can catch a city bus that will drop you at the entrance. There are several different tracks to choose from and no matter which you select or how many times you visit, you're sure to experience peace & contentment in this beautiful place.

We needed a place to relax while waiting for our motel room to be ready. We played in the forest, bought a snack and used the facilities! great spot.

Fantastic vista and walkways. The trees are marvellous and stunning to observe. A beautiful place to be.

The forest walk was recommended by our motel and they were right. Lovely setting and easy to find and navigate.

The main walk is just boring redwoods. Its possible (ask at information) to take part of another walk (green? violet?) to the ridge through different trees and views. This is really really nice - do it!

Very picturesque. Great photo opportunities. Easy to get to from Rotorua, only a 5 minute drive. Take time to go on some of the hiking trails, but be sure to wear good shoes. You don't need hiking boots, as the trails are good, but my ballet flats didn't work for me.

Loved the feel of this forest park with their well laid out and sign posted walks and tracks. The Redwoods look so well looked after and tracks well maintained. Not to be missed!

Another good place to visit with a lovely walk through the redwood trees with some towering around 50 plus meters. The spring part of the way round produces 4.5 million litres of water per hour and tastes mighty good . Take an empty bottle with you so collect some to drink. Trout in the incredibly clear river the spring creates.

Absolutely stunning forest. Great place for either a short or long walk. Wonderful photo opportunities. what a lovely free activity to have in Rotorua!

Went on a walk with family was great looking at everything drank from the springs was beautiful I would do it again and again

This was just ok for me. It can be a peaceful walk with some beauty to see but wouldn't go out of my way to see this place. It's free and if you are in the area and have some time then of course check it out.
