This magical wee dell is a Hokitika highlight. A short walk down in to the bush and you’ll discover the wonders of glow worms. A great mid winter activity!

There's something quite magical about taking a trip to see glow worms at night and one of the coolest places to do this is at the Hokitika Glow Worm Dell. We were pretty blown away that this is a completely free activity and, to be honest, it was one of the best we did when we took a roadie down the West Coast. I love the way glow worms sparkle and captivate your eyes - they are nature's light-catcher. Big tip: Take a torch, a good one, because it's a decent walk down into the dell.
