Nature's Corner - What's happening in the Valley in early winter 2004
In the latest Nature's Corner, you can find out what's happening in the Valley, including getting rid of weeds and restoring missing species.
Heritage of Gold Explorer Packs|
Come to the Karori Wildlife Sanctuary over the July school holidays and explore the gold mining history of the valley. There are numerous gold mining relics to discover in the bush and a real gold mine to visit. Kids can spend an hour and a half exploring using a specially designed Explorer Pack to help them discover and learn about Wellington's own gold rush.
Explorer Packs include a trail task map, stickers, a postcard, a pencil and a sweet and cost just $2 in addition to the entry fee. |

Sanctuary Bio-security Programme Detects a Weasel
You may have read recently in the Dominion Post about a weasel found inside the Sanctuary during a routine pest audit. Occasional breaches are not unexpected and our robust bio-security programme ensured we picked up the intruder promptly.
New Weed Garden
Photos, leaflets and descriptions of weeds are great, but there's nothing like the real thing. Recently, some of the more troublesome of Wellington's weeds have taken root in the Sanctuary's "Weed Garden". More information...
