Duntroon and the surrounding area is home to a mixture of natural, historical and cultural attractions that are unlike anything else. Beginning in Duntroon at the Vanished World Centre, you can learn about our fascinating local geology, the ancient creatures, such as shark tooth dolphins and penguins which stood 1.3m high, that used to call this area home. Â
Â
Explore a bit further out from Duntroon and you will be rewarded with ancient Maori rock art, Elephant Rocks and Anatini where
an ancient Baleen Fossil waits. Â
Â
Duntroon has also preserved some of its more recent past with old gaol (jail) and Nicol’s Blacksmith -which on select days has a working blacksmith on site. Â
Â
Then wander through the Duntroon Wetlands, where hard-working volunteers have created a lovely network of pathways that meander
around springs and waterways.Â
