The Goldsmiths rest area along the Waioeka Journey features the Goldsmiths family who once farmed in the area. But it was a constant battle with nature and the land was eventually abandoned to return to native bush.

 

This is another off-road parking area that is suitable for taking a break, or parking overnight.
