Throw the Cheese a buck if you can! Or even better- book the Snowline Lodge for your next gathering!

Any amount of koha helps 🥰

Te Kohanga, Kura Tāwhiti, Castle Hill.

For those you have never experienced the wonder of this place, time to get amongst!
For those who have- sunrise or sunset missions, or even under the full moon is an experience of its own

Just 15 minutes drive from Forest Lodge, lies what the Dalai Lama called the 'spiritual centre of the universe', a playground of giant limestone outcrops where time stops and the magic starts.

Whether you're into
🧗The world class climbing/bouldering
🗿Sacred stones and ancient stories
🌄Scenic strolls
💫 or maybe even some chakra realignment!

Te Kohanga/ Kura Tāwhiti/ Castle Hill should be next on your list!
