Southern Scenic Road

We slept in a little today and got up around 9am. As we had paid for the showers we decided to take advantage and shower again this morning. We both quickly showered and cooked some hot cross buns in the oven. We left about 10:30 and headed straight down to Dunedin and through. We drove a while all the way down Highway 1 until we reached Balclutha where we turned down Owaka on the scenic route. Our first stop was at a Historic Railway Tunnel. This was an old railway from the 1880s. We walked down and about half way into the tunnel then turned around bcause it was really dark and eerie plus our torch wasnt that thay great. We then continued onto Purakaunui Bay where we did completed the loop to have a look at Purakaunui Water Falls. We walk about 20 minutes to these falls. They where the widest falls we had seen so far, they also had about 4 layers. These falls where well worth the walk. The forest walk was also really pretty. We then continued onto Matai Falls. Chris was still unwell so be decided to stay in the car for these Falls. There where 2 falls on this walk, both where pretty good being about 5 meters high.Okumaya devam et
