This post is the second of three describing an eastbound road trip through the Catlins. It follows last week’s post, ‘The Catlins: New Zealand’s wild, rocky, southern shore’.

Here is a map of the Catlins that I saw on the side of the local museum at Waikawa. It shows the inland rainforest parks with their spectacular waterfalls, as well as the better-known coastal areas. You can download a PDF from catlins.org.nz.
