Explore these staggering natural land forms
The Clay Cliffs are a geological wonder; ‘bad land’ sharp pinnacles and ridges separated by steep and narrow ravines.
The Cliffs were created out of layers of silt and gravel deposited by ancient glaciers around 4 million years ago. These layers were compressed, then up-lifted by geological activity in the area, then as the high points began to be eroded pinnacles were left behind.
Cost: $5 NZD per vehicle, please take cash and place in the honesty box.
Access :
To get to the Clay Cliffs, turn onto Quailburn Rd off SH8

Please note:
The trail at Clay Cliffs is not suitable for people
with mobility issues as the surface is uneven.
