On our journey back to Auckland we decided to drive down the west coast as we had driven up on the east coast. Again this was a beautiful drive and led us past two important sites for the Kauri tree. The Kauri tree is New Zealand's largest and most famous native tree but at the moment it is danger from being destroyed by a disease that it can get through its shallow delicate roots. There are signs and areas to wash your shoes before entering Kauri woodland.
We stopped on our drive to see the largest and fattest Kauri tree. 
Tallest tree, so tall you can't get it all in. It is very impressive to see.
Fattest tree.
