  • Te Anau – Fiordland
    Community – Kea Project Plan Fiordland/Te Anau Funded by: Department of Conservation Community Fund (DOC CF) Period: 1 December 2015 – 31 October 2017. Key contact person: Kea Conservation Trust – Tamsin Orr-Walker – [email protected]; Ph 0274249594 Aim The aim of the Community – Kea Project Plan is to i) facilitate long-term community kea conservation initiatives and ii) to change the way we think, act and live with kea in our communities. This will be actioned through development of collaborative Project Plans across the South Island. Each community plan will address concerns specific to the local community and threats to the resident kea population. Project Background This initial project plan outline has been developed as a result of discussions with communities during the Kea Conservation Trust’s (KCT) Winter Advocacy Tour - 20 July – 3 August 2015. The tour was funded by Dulux and supported by Department of Conservation (DOC). The tour theme, “Building a future with kea”, aimed to promote a new MOU between communities and kea. This initiative is in line with the new Strategic Plan for Kea Conservation (refer attached draft document), objective 3: to i) increase positive perceptions of kea and reduce conflict and ii) facilitate formation of community led kea conservation initiatives. Local Community – Kea Project Plans will be activated by two Community Engagement Coordinator’s (CEC’s) based in the following areas: 1) Upper half of the South Island: Northern region (Nelson/ Motueka/ Kahurangi), Central North (Nelson Lakes/ Murchison/Arthur’s Pass/Christchurch/Mt Hutt) and upper West Coast (Greymouth and Hokitika). There is also the potential to include Kaikoura at a later date (the eastern most population of kea).

  • Notes & Map Milford Track
    Milford Track, Fiordland National Park At just over 53km in length, the world-famous Milford Track is liberally endowed with some of the most spectacular natural sights of any track in the world. Walking the track requires taking a ferry across Lake Te Anau from Te Anau Downs to Glade Wharf at the lake head and near the mouth of the Clinton River. From the wharf, it’s a two-hour walk to the 40-bunk Clinton Hut. The track then continues up the Clinton Valley – a wild and dramatic place where the valley climbs steadily through the unfolding majesty of the Clinton Canyon – a defile of rock and precipice lorded over by 2000m summits and split by fissures where waterfalls tumble. Sited in the forest in the upper valley at 600m, directly below MacKinnon Pass, Mintaro Hut is a full day’s walk from Clinton Hut and is the staging point for tackling the pass. Lake Mintaro is nearby. From Mintaro, it’s a steady climb up a steep zig-zag trail to Mackinnon Pass – the hardest day of the walk for most. From the pass, the track descends into the Roaring Burn passing beneath the flanks of Mt Balloon and Mt Elliot which during winter and spring regularly send large airborne avalanches over their precipitous slopes and into the valley. A direct short-cut ‘emergency track’ is available to avoid this danger during spring. The track continues to Quintin Lodge and day shelter at the confluence of the Roaring Burn and Arthur River. From the shelter, there is a 90-minute return trip to Sutherland Falls (580m) – one of New Zealand’s highest waterfalls and a highlight of the track.
