Wild About New Zealand - Season 1 Episode 1 Fiordland National Parks
In this episode Gus explores the truly extraordinary pristine Fiordland – a place Maori call Ata Whenua – the Shadowland. Fiordland National Park covers an incredible 5% of New Zealand’s total land area and is also one of the wettest locations in New Zealand with seven metres of rain annually–three times as much as the Amazon Basin. Ancient glaciers carved up this massive landscape and in doing so, created hundreds of canyons…making the area a haven for canyoners. Gus’s first mission is a world first - abseiling the full 161 metre length of Bowen Falls. Fiordland is also home to ancient creatures found nowhere else on earth living alongside the giant native centipede, the Peripatus and the distinct black coral found in the dark still waters of the fiords. This park is also home to the Sutherland Falls, which at 500 metres high, is one of the tallest in the world.
