The Kiwi Park Story

Family-owned and operated, since 1986

Rubbish tip turned refuge, Kiwi Park has been in operation since 1986. We are home to over 20 native species of wildlife all here as part of managed conservation programs through the Department of Conservation.

Our Mission

“Our mission is to help protect and restore our native taonga species through managed conservation projects and education. We provide a sanctuary for wildlife and show conservation in a natural setting. We aspire to instill hope in our visitors that everyone can make a difference to help wildlife and the environment”
