About this map
Name: Stewart Island topographic map, elevation, terrain.
Location: Stewart Island, Southland, New Zealand (-47.29000 167.44721 -46.68343 168.22927)
Average elevation: 63 m
Minimum elevation: -2 m
Maximum elevation: 967 m
Although the clay soil is not very fertile, the high rainfall and warm weather mean that the island is densely forested throughout. Native plants include the world's southernmost dense forest of podocarps (southern conifers) and hardwoods such as rātā and kāmahi in the lowland areas with mānuka shrubland at higher elevations. The trees are thought to have become established here since the last ice age from seeds brought across the strait by seabirds, which would explain why the beech trees that are so common in New Zealand, but whose seeds are dispersed by the wind rather than birds, are not found on Stewart Island.
