Ruapani Circuit
A well-graded track rises 300m in altitude to the day shelter at Lake Waikareiti. About half an hour beyond the Waikareiti day shelter, a left fork takes you onto the Ruapani Circuit Track, which passes 7 unmodified high-altitude wetlands.Each wetland is different from the others and include open water, sedgelands, sphagnum moss and wire-rush-dominated bogs, herbfields and shrublands. Then exit onto the Waikareiti Track near the main road.走Ruapani Circuit是衝著7個不同特色的溼地 但事實上就第一個溼地和Lake Ruapani還稍值得一看 其他根本只是遠遠看到一角 也沒什麼特色 森林也一般 ...

Lake Waikareiti應有不錯湖景 今天大霧 錯失了
Lake Waikareiti was formed by a massive landslide which took place about 18,000 years ago. The lake is free of pollution and all introduced aquatic plants, and has amazing water clarity.
crystal clear water
One can hire boats to access Rahui Island and a short walk to a small lake to visit an unusual "island in an island"
