Glenfern Sanctuary
Why not take a tour up the island with us to Port Fitzroy the home of Glenfern Sanctuary. You won’t be disappointed!
Glenfern Sanctuary offers a rare opportunity to experience native wildlife on Great Barrier Island. The Sanctuary covers an area of around 150 acres in the north of the island at Port Fitzroy and is the result of nearly 10 years hard work. Over 9,000 native trees have been planted and there is an extensive track network. A swing bridge enables visitors to climb into the crown of a 600-year-old kauri tree. Ongoing rat and cat eradication provides a safe habitat for many native species including the black petrel and brown teal, breeding here; also kaka and chevron skink and the recently introduced North Island robin.
The guided walk takes around 2 hours and leaves us plenty of time to explore the Windy Canyon and east coast beaches on the way back to your accommodation.
