Te Wahipounamu – South West New Zealand
World Heritage
New Zealand
🎧 Listen to Introduction
The landscape of this park in southwestern New Zealand is a result of successive glaciations that have shaped fjords, rocky coasts, towering cliffs, lakes and waterfalls. Two-thirds of the park is covered in southern beech and podocarp trees, some of which are more than 800 years old. The world's only alpine parrot, the kea, lives in the park, as well as the rare and endangered taka, a large flightless bird.
