Recently we had the pleasure of meeting with the Banks Peninsula Geopark.  We took a tour of some of our local geosites, showing them some of our updated interpretation signs.  We aim to tell the story of our land and people through the geopark.  Listen here to learn more about what our day involved and the development of the geopark here in the Waitaki.   

Are you involved in a community group and would like our team to tell you about the geopark - places to visit, explore and learn about the stories associated with our land and its people?  Listen here to learn about how we meet with community groups.  Contact us through our website to book a time for us to visit your community group.
