Ranfurly-Patearoa, Central Otago
Not far off the Otago Rail Trail, is a conservation area covering a very special geological area, the Rock and Pillar Range.
Before it earned it's descriptive title, Maori called the range Patearoa, a name which is still applied to the town. Long long before that, the striking rock formations decorating the range were created, when Zealandia was forming, under the sea.
