Farewell Spit to Foxton Beach, New Zealand

The walk back across Farewell Spit Reserve to Golden Bay is through Puponga Farm Park. This is one of a number of farm parks created throughout New Zealand and managed by the Department of Conservation. You can see some of the trees on the hill are very windblown as we experience first hand as we walked down the unprotected side of the spit. Select the photo below to see what happens to the larger trees after a period of rain and exceptionally high winds.
