Hands On Activities in Greymouth

Barrytown Knife Making

Forge your own blade from red hot steel and complete your knife with a native timber handle, brass bolsters and pins. Other free activities include axe throwing, target practice and a huge swing. Toasted sandwiches are typically provided for lunch!

Shantytown Heritage Park

Officially opened in 1971, the 19th-century recreated gold town is a delight for all. The steam train, old fashioned lolly shop, and gold panning are just some of the many activities on offer.
