Step through a vine tunnel into an animation of light and sound: children chasing bubbles, soft techno pulsing near a glow garden, and a surprisingly calm pond formed at the base of an ancient Rata stump. The course mixes playful set pieces—a friendly giant rabbit to pat as you putt—with quieter pockets of native planting where steam and water hint at the volcanic ground beneath.
