The Catlins Coastal Rainforest Park is a true paradise for cyclists. The road winds through ancient forests dominated by giant rimu and totara trees, offering spectacular views of the coastline and surrounding mountains. Some of the most popular viewpoints include Florence Hill Lookout and the Tautuku Scenic Reserve.
The landscape is dotted with numerous rivers and waterfalls, such as Purakaunui Falls and McLean Falls, which accompany the road. The park is also home to a variety of wildlife, including kiwi, tui, and New Zealand's famous pukeko birds, which can be spotted while cycling through the park.
