Fluidr / Karst marble landscape [areas of caves, arches, sinkholes and shafts] are a highlight of Kahurangi National Park. by rebecca bowater nature photographer

Mount Owen in Kahurangi National Park at a height 1875 metres (6150 feet).
There are a number of caves in the marble karst areas on the flanks of the mountain, including New Zealand's longest cave system the Bulmer Cave.
Mount Owen featured briefly in the first of The Lord of the Rings film trilogy, The Fellowship of the Ring. When the characters led by Aragorn leave Moria they emerge onto a rocky plateau. This was filmed on the slopes of Mount Owen.
