웨스트 코스트(뉴질랜드) 주변 최고의 폭포 하이킹 & 워킹 코스

Wonderful hike, but definitely go at low tide. Allow about an hour for high tide. We started the hike with the Coastal Walk and couldn't find the path from the beach before the last waterfall, which leads up to the Triviam Crossroads Pack Track and the suspension bridge to the 3 Mile Lagoon. We ended up wading 100 meters in the river and climbing up to the path at the bridge.

Follow the Ōkārito Wetland Walk before continuing through coastal forest and over the Kohuamarua Bluff. The route meanders through windswept rimu, rata and silver pine forests before dropping down to Three Mile Lagoon - a sheltered estuary. A bridge crosses the lagoon, but there is no path past this point. You can - at low tide - walk back across the beach, but you should first find out about the tide level on the plan at the parking lot.

This is a great walk to do when you're in Okarito. Head up to the Trig for some great views, then backtrack and follow along the Three Mile Pack Track. Make sure to check the tides as with low tide you can return via the beach.
