Davaar Station Farm Tours - The Key, Te Anau (Southland)

The 1100-hectare property is a combination of rugged hill country dotted with native tussocks and grasses as well as flat pastoral land. Both sheep and cattle are farmed here using well practiced sustainable processes, high-quality technology and good old fashioned hard work.
We look forward to welcoming you at Davaar Station!
