Nature - Reptiles & Amphibians

Whilst there are are very few reptiles and amphibians to be found in the Arthur's Pass region, both the endemic Southern Alps Gecko and New Zealand Grass Skink can still be encountered up to altitudes of about 1000m, mostly on the eastern side of the Park. There are numerous mammalian threats to reptiles in the conservation areas, and these species remain in decline.
