Hubby read in the paper that the council wants to stop maintaining part of Kiwi Road.
So, of course, we wanted to find out for ourselves if they were right or wrong!
Getting to Kiwi Road was not an easy task, but the scenery was pretty cool.
And, then, with this ominous sign, we found Kiwi Road.
There had been logging done. The tree trunks left standing are from ponga
trees that are useless as lumber.
Not far before this tunnel, the 'road' turned into a track with grass down the middle.
That's when we realized this was probably the part they wanted to stop keeping up.
For the last few miles, this is the only photo I took as the road was so twisty
and rocky that we couldn't stop (and looked like the same turns over and over!), even when we went under a tree that had just enough room for a vehicle cut out of it as it lay across the road!
So, we decided that the council was probably right. I'm sure they are
happy that we agree :)
