Hiking with friends - Zealandia fence loop

Hey folks!

The Zealandia Sanctuary is an otherworldly environment a mere three kilometers from the city center. It is termed a “Mainland Island”; where the predator fence keeps mainland pests out and fosters the ecosystem within. Its surroundings constitute one of Wellington’s best trail playgrounds for the diversity of trails, the hilltop views, the reach into various suburbs, and a spectacular connector between other reserves.

This trip will only go ahead in nice weather and if there hasn't been too much rain in the days beforehand.

If you are unwell, please stay home and get better!!!!
