点评:We stopped in here for morning tea during a recent three week SI road trip. We always carry a thermos of hot water and some coffee sachets with us on our travels.
This is a very beautiful spot. The weather was superb. There are a couple of tables with bench seats, we sat at one and there was another couple (who it turns out were from Melbourne in the SI on a whistlestop tour) at the other one.
It was such a lovely place to spend an hour or so, taking in the breathtaking view. The birdlife was amazing, with heaps of fantails flitting around and eating the sandflies on the wing. Didn’t seem to put much of a dent in the sandfly population but they are beautiful little birds.
The drive into the rest area on the track through native bush is really beautiful too.
Highly recommend this for a stop if you’re passing. It’s easy to find, just turn into the road opposite the Mahinapua Pub on SH6 (remember the Mainland Cheese ads on the tele??) and drive to the end of the road.
There are also very clean toilets at the site, thank you to the Council for providing such a great area to stop.

这是一个非常美丽的地方。天气非常好。这里有几张带长凳的桌子,我们坐在一张桌子上,另一张桌子上还有一对夫妇(原来他们来自 SI 的墨尔本,正在短暂游览)。
这是一个非常可爱的地方,可以花一个小时左右的时间欣赏令人惊叹的景色。鸟类生活令人惊叹,成群的扇尾鸟飞来飞去,吃着翅膀上的白蛉。似乎对白蛉种群没有太大影响,但它们是美丽的小鸟。
穿过原生灌木丛驶入小路上的休息区也非常美丽。
如果你路过,强烈推荐在这里停留。很容易找到,只需转到 SH6 上 Mahinapua Pub 对面的路(还记得电视上的 Mainland Cheese 广告吗??)然后开车到路的尽头。
现场还有非常干净的厕所,感谢委员会提供如此棒的停留区域。
