    That bridge is a no, no for me. You paid 40 dollars to cross? They would have to pay me a couple thousand for me to cross. Love your videos. I bet tourism has increased in NZ since your channel has started.

      I know $40 is a bit expensive, considering there are a lot of these bridges around the country which are completly free.... We live in a great part of the world. Hope it's not to hot over there for ya.

    More fun adventures. Back in the day they tried tunnelling through the Peninsula where that swing bridge goes to a diverting the river for gold mining. Apparently lots of gold in there. It's a neat place to explore.

    That swing bridge 😱, I went on a small one and had to wait for people to get across it before I could attempt it. Not good with heights at all…

      I can tell you they both crossed that bridge more than 3 times, So I don't think there was much fear there. Please let me know the next time you go to the dentist lol, I had no luck with community services card either... More Soph on camera, and more riley narrating. Team leopard.

    If you’re heading down the coast via Reefton, might I suggest Nelson Creek campground. Turn off just before Ngahere. Well signposted. non-DOC, donation camp.
    Shower, toilets, water and some great walks on old logging railways including the odd tunnel. 👍
