Striking new photos released by Civil Defence on Thursday show how much damage the Port Hills damage caused last week.
More than 3000 hectares were wiped out in the fire which is still being attended to by fire crews.
The Christchurch Adventure Park, which was near the centre of the fire, sustained partial damage.
The fire took days to contain and hundreds of firefighters from around the distract were involved, including more than 15 helicopters.
