Discover how kiwi chicks are raised and help support their conservation
Admission, guided tour, insurance
Explore the National Kiwi Hatchery with expert staff and discover how kiwi eggs are incubated and chicks are raised. The centre has hatched and released over 2,600 kiwi chicks since 1995, and all ticket proceeds support its conservation work.
Look for adult kiwi foraging in the specially designed Nocturnal House. September to March is the best time for a chance to see eggs and chicks, though sightings aren't guaranteed.
