Zealandia - the Karori Sanctuary Experience

Lake and Tower
Located just minutes from downtown Wellington, Karori Wildlife Sanctuary is a unique and world renowned conservation attraction.
Protected from pest mammals by a unique predator-proof fence, rare and endangered wildlife live free in a beautiful, 250 hectare valley of regenerating native forest.
Join us on a day or night guided tour and learn all about this award-winning, world-first conservation attraction. Experience many rare and endangered species that are usually only found on offshore islands, such as little spotted kiwi, saddleback, hihi, tuatara plus many more species – all living free in their natural habitat.
In 2010, Wellington’s award winning ZEALANDIA eco-sanctuary was selected by UK broadsheet The Guardian as one of the top 75 green tourism companies in the world.
Being a charitable trust all proceeds received from visitors are directed towards continuing our 500 year vision of restoring New Zealand’s unique natural heritage.
A truly unique nature experience.
