The prolific birdlife of Ōtari-Wilton’s Bush

Join us for an enriching walk through Ōtari-Wilton's Bush, where you'll have the chance to discover the fascinating birdlife alongside Hugh Robertson, a leading expert and author of the Field Guide to the Birds of New Zealand 📚. Hugh, a self-confessed 'bird-nerd', will guide you as we take a leisurely circuit walk to Troup Lawn, calling out to the birds and sharing insights about their status and conservation efforts.

Gather at Tāne Whakapiripiri, the Ōtari Visitor Centre — perfect for families and those looking to immerse themselves in nature! 🏞️ We kindly ask that dogs stay at home to ensure comfort during our tour.

This event is part of the Ōtari-Wilton’s Bush Trust’s Annual Guided Walks Programme, celebrating 100 years of conservation and community from 1926 to 2026. Membership is available for $20 for individuals or $30 for families, allowing you to enjoy all walks for free after signup, along with other exciting benefits!
