"CHERISH " is an award-winning drama from one of New Zealand’s foremost playwrights. It’s a story of the interpersonal conflicts between two couples and the children they share.

It looks at what happens when good intentions run up against the hard realities of human need.

Director Sian Davis directed a full production in 2011 because she was taken with its “immediacy, its intensity, its beauty, its tenderness. I truly believe it’s a genuine NZ classic”.

“Extraordinary and exciting.” Dominion Post Review 2003

Free BBQ! Walk the new track!

This is a new step-free route between Kauri Glen Road and Tui Glen Road, with a refurbished track (including steps) to Raymond Terrace. The new bridge is around 6 storeys high with a very impressive view of the forest tree tops.
The new tracks, bridge and boardwalk have been built to a standard to help prevent the spread of kauri dieback disease, which is especially important in this park.
*** Please always clean your shoes, bikes, prams and wheelchairs at the stations. ***

Note: We made the decision to allow public access earlier than expected to prevent further damage to the forest by those who were throwing the fences into the trees 🙁
