...on the West Coast

MINEHAHA: walk, very close to Fox village, is an easily accessed example of rain forest. It is best viewed after or even under rain.
ALEX KNOB: *** Easy track with great views of Franz Josef glacier from a mountain top.

West Coast vegetation - The abundant rainfall on the West Coast produces dense forests, with thick undergrowth of ferns and mosses.
