Many of New Zealand's sand dunes were formerly covered in native forest. Few native forested dunes remain today. The best remaining examples are the dunes of the Haast lowlands which are covered in kahikatea, rimu and silver beech forest. These two photos are of parallel dunes in Mataketake State Forest, north of the Haast River. This area is part of our proposed Paringa-Haast National Reserve. Photographs: Guy Salmon
