Bush, Birds and Views of Thames

While you're in Thames, look for Rocky's Goldmine Trail—a three hour bush walk. Take Victoria Street to Dickson Holiday Park where the walk starts. You'll see excellent views of the Firth of Thames, regenerating native forest and swimming holes.

To spy on the local bird life, find the Karaka Bird Hide by the Goldfields Shopping Mall, Brown Street. Take the board walk through the mangroves to the Hide, where you can sit and watch birds in the Thames Firth. The War Memorial Monument at the top of Waiotahi Creek Road offers great views of Thames township.
