Feb 9, 2026 A Day in the Woods
Today we headed for the woods. It was a beautiful sunny day, so we opted to be in the shade of the forest as we explored the Outram Glen Tracks along the Taieri River. On Feb. 13, 2024 we explored the Taieri River Gorge on the ‘Inlander Train’ (read the blog HERE). Today we are much further downstream along the river, and on foot.

It was wonderfully cool in the shade of the woods, with moss and ferns surrounding us.

We were accompanied by fantails flitting around us as we stirred up the leaves and sent tiny flying insects up for the birds to swoop around our heads to catch them on the wing!
