The way that I think is the easier and faster one is from the small gravel road nearby that looks like it is privat property. Just drive or walk up to the sign "historic reserve" and then walk over the farmland. If you want to see the Rock Art you have to cross private property anyway. The alternative walk is from the highway near the village entry over the village walkway. Just follow the village walk until the signs and then cross the fence and climb the hill, always following the fence. After crossing two hills there is going to be another sign close to the Rock Drawings. For this way you need go footwear and a bit of stamina.

Start by cafe across from hotel at hwy 7. Walk along behind the village for maybe 500m. Go left at sign and follow very hard to see dull yellow markers along fence line...up, down and up down...there are impressive limestone out crops as well as the art. We enjoyed the break in our trip and admired the very cool designs on the securely protected overhang. DOC information indicates the very black and ochre coloured figures were over painted with house paintin 1929. Great views as well.
