Ross
The ‘Roddy Nugget’ - New Zealand’s largest gold nugget was unearthed here in Ross a small town just South of Hokitika, on the West Coast. Learn about the town's heritage and hire a gold pan to try your hand at the Ross Goldfields – you might just find your own “Roddy”. Alternatively, head to the river where there is also a public gold fossicking area. more
The Ross Historic Goldfields walks offer a range of fun with mine tunnel entrances, mining relics and an historic cemetery on show. They are great fun for the family. There is even a curio room available for free viewing. Near Ross is the Totara Valley, a good place for an easy half day mountain bike.
Surrounded by forestry, Ross is popular for bushwalking, birdwatching and both freshwater and saltwater fishing.
