Paparoa National Park Review

Paparowa National Park is located on New Zealand's South Island. The most famous attractions are the Thousand-Layer Rock and Water Spray Holes. Visitors can enjoy the natural scenery of Pancake Rock along the trail, or watch the spectacular scenery of the water spraying holes into the air at high tide. The Thousand-Layers Cake Rock is a rare marine monument in Paparowa National Park, formed 30 million years ago, when small marine life and sand interlayered buried under the seabed. Seismic activity gradually rises and drys the seabed, and after long-term erosion of soft sand and stone by wind and rain, the formation is vertically formed with cliff trenches. It is amazing as a huge layer of pancakes stacked. tips: This attraction must go when the tide is high. During the non-high tide, you can only see the thousands of layers of rock. The water spray hole is not sprayed, so you must check the high tide time in advance.
