    Tips

    This suspension bridge is the second official entry on Kepler Track (with that of Te Anau Lake).

    This entrance is however more isolated since it is quite far from Te Anau. To start Kepler Track here, you will need to be motorized. A car park allows you to leave your vehicle for the time of the trek.

    Even if you are not parked here, take the time to take the small fork to see this Indiana Jones-like bridge. Half cross it and get a great view of the Waiau River.

      The bridge opens up a wonderful view of the river… pretty shaky

        There are a few suspension bridges here, but each one is fascinating and beautiful
