[2025 Rotorua Attraction] Travel Guide for Redwoods Treewalk (Updated May)

Just a five-minute drive south of Rotorua, New Zealand, there is a vast and beautiful redwood forest, where there is a spectacular treetop walkway. The walkway is narrow, allowing only one person at a time, but it is exceptionally sturdy. The slight swaying adds an inexplicable sense of adventure. The treetop walkway is built between each circular platform, and upon reaching each platform, there are trivia and quiz games related to New Zealand's flora. Walking among these towering trees, one can also learn new knowledge from time to time. Up close with these giants, one feels insignificant, looking up along the ancient trees all the way to the blue sky, a world apart from the hustle and bustle of the city. The tranquility and peace instantly fill the body. Sitting on the platform's benches surrounded by the giant trees, with the chirping of birds in the ears, one feels that even without doing anything, just putting down the phone and the noise, it would be possible to spend an entire day here.

Rotorua, a geothermal city on the North Island of New Zealand, is replete with geothermal resources throughout the city and is a major residential area for the Maori people. Don't miss these highlights! 📍Geothermal Park, a must-visit! Don't miss the hot spring performance at 10:15! It's recommended to arrive at 9:30, as it takes time to get tickets and park. Park tickets are cheaper on Ctrip than on-site, and it takes about 5-10 minutes to issue tickets. The entire geothermal park takes about 4 hours of walking + photography, with the most distinctive features being the geothermal lake in the video and the green lake at the end, which is super super green 📍Redwood Forest (Daytime) Several free hiking routes, about 2 hours 📍Redwood Forest Light Show (after 6:30PM) Paid, around 50 New Zealand dollars, recommended around 7 PM, as it's too early if it's still light out, and parking gets difficult later. A must-visit! 📍Mud Bath at Hell'sGate 85 New Zealand dollars per person, includes a 20-minute hot spring mud bath and unlimited natural hot springs, very fun 📍Accommodation, I chose a park campsite, the rooms are average, quite affordable, with a kitchen, and also a free hot spring (check when booking), a bath after a day of fun, and a very good sleep 📍Kiwi National Conservation Center, now merged with a farm, visited in a Tour format, Kiwi is New Zealand's national bird, worth a visit as a tourist spot

As soon as I entered the Redwood Forest in Rotorua, New Zealand, the air felt completely different❤️ I tried something called the Redwood Tree Walk, and it turned out that even Prince Harry and his wife from the UK came and experienced it😆 The admission times are divided into daytime and nighttime, and the lights are on at night, so the atmosphere is completely different👍 If you're going to Rotorua, go here and enjoy the amazing nature of New Zealand😆 #HongKongFlightEvent #NewZealandTravel #Rotorua

#Overseas travel #New Zealand travel #New Zealand #Trekking #Forest bathing #Lighting Rotoruwa in New Zealand is famous for its hot springs and cultures that preserve the traditions of the indigenous people of New Zealand👐 This time, I experienced the Redwood Tree Walk in Rotoruwa! It is an experience where you can walk on the Redwood Track by connecting a track to a tree called Redwood! Usually, people visit the Redwood Track during the day to enjoy the forest and see the trees, but at night, you can see many works and lights along the walking trail under the name of night opening!! Unfortunately, I arrived at night and couldn't capture the forest scenery, but I was able to see the works of the indigenous Maori people of New Zealand made with plants and lights on the tree! It was a different feeling to walk in the forest with lights, and on an aerial track.🥰 If you pay for the night opening, you can enter the next day for free during the day!
