Check, Clean, Dry to stop the spread

Getting outdoors is a fantastic way to explore New Zealand, but it’s important to check, clean, and dry your gear to protect our natural environment. Check your boots, clothing, gear and equipment for weeds, seeds and pests, and clean thoroughly after each trip to prevent the spread of invasive species.
