Fancy tramping near the Wairarapa coast?

There are three DoC walks near the Wairarapa coast that may be of interest to you:

  1. Rockyhill:  6km return and has great views.
  2. Honeycomb Rock: a flat 10km return along the beach and passes seal colony.
  3. Oumakura Stream Bush Reserve: 400 acres of nice bush to walk around, with lots of wild deer living that may be seen at times. A relatively new reserve, it has only a couple of tracks in place at present, so contact Mike Milburn on 06 3727570 or email me if you’d like to be guided.

There is farm and beach accommodation nearby, or stay in Greytown and drive out for a walk.

The Flatpoint beach (www.flatpoint.co.nz) is also nearby if you like paua, crayfish and swimming (if weather permits!)

For more information on any of the above contact Mike Milburn on 06 3727570 or email me
