Mist over Waipoua Forest

Ancient kauri trees can live to more than 3,000 years to become the world's largest rainforest trees. Kauri are among 80% of NZ native plants that are endemic to these islands, found nowhere else on earth!

With over 450 species of plants, Waipoua is New Zealand's richest and most diverse rainforest. To an artist, or ecologist, exploring this forest is more than a lifetime's journey.
