Put this in your Diary for 2017. Experience Westports rich kiwi history, from the arrival of the explorers to the thousands of gold hunters of the 1860s, the traders, early settlers, farmers and coal miners. Historical interpretation centers and museums, including Coaltown in Westport and the Reefton Visitor Centre ‘Quartzpolis Mine’, provide a fascinating insight into the region’s turbulent past. There is still gold in the local streams for us to try our hand at panning. We will explore the old mines and relics throughout the region.
