The rain forest of the Oparara Basin is just 16 km from Karamea. Our 4 wheel drive vehicles carry 6 people and the guides stop at lookout points, and also visit Box Canyon and Crazy Paving caves as time permits. Amongst the extinct bones were those of the world's largest eagle, the Haast Eagle. The eagles preyed on the Moa. A high quality walkway through impressive rain forest leads to the caves.
Daily tours depart from the Last Resort and departure times are by arrangement.
