My daughter loved doing the walks and having everything being explained rather than being shown photos. I really enjoyed seeing the lava stream caves and seeing how the lava did flow, very interesting tour. Lovely guide and he knew heaps of information to explain how volcanos work

There was little advance information about Mount Eccles but it turned out to be an interesting and very different old volcanic area.There were good facilities and a walking track around the crater lake. Easy to find between Portland and Hamilton..
