Buller Gorge Swing Bridge

About

While the swing bridge takes center stage there is much more to try and experience in the surrounding areas. A popular location during the gold rush of the 19th century, flecks of gold can still be found in the river! The park offers lessons on how to pan for gold and anything you find is yours to keep! If you are more interested in seeing the surrounding beauty, the park offers a variety of trails that allows you to experience the wild flora and fauna perfect for any timeframe from a couple of minutes to a few hours! For adrenaline seekers there are also options to zipline through the trees or to ride the best jet boat, according to Lonely Planet, through the rushing river. Please make sure to check the schedule of activities, as some are not available year round.
