Coastal Walks
Food in the Wairarapa
The best views of the coast are the ones you get when you wander.
Catered and guided walks - these need to be booked
- Tora Coastal Walk starts with an overnight stay in renovated shearers' accommodation. A highlight is the Tora coastline with a shipwreck and deserted beaches. The food is as famous as the walk - ask for a copy of the cookbook!

- Kawakawa Station Walk is a 3 day walk through farmland, river valleys and native bush. Views of Cook Strait and delicious food are a highlight.
