Knowledgeable and hospitable. A great trip.

Friendly people and a nice chilled out atmosphere. Very accomodating for newbies

This is a hard track! Its very steep, and I had to use my hands to get up some parts but the view is well worth it!!

Very disappointing. Booked a 1:1 advanced ride as a birthday treat, discussed what I was wanting with the owner by phone and email prior to booking. On the day, whilst th ... more

Average track. 4x4 experience too easy. Hunters around be seen or limp home

Its a good place for a short steep hike and has mountain biking tracks with good jumps

Don't follow Google. Go left at hydrabad ave then right down tui.

Great hut, beautiful clear river for swimming and getting drinking water! To the hut it took us approximately 4 hours as out of practice hikers. Really nice, diverse view ... more

Beautiful, peaceful place

In the middle of a stunning and ancient totara forest, the fern walk is a gentle stroll fit for families. The recent storms have certainly done a little damage, but the b ... more

Great place and memories.

It took my bf and me around 2 hours to complete the loop track. There are not too many stairs, and the waterfall is very nice. On one way, there is a decent amount of tre ... more

Loved this amazing circular crater rim walk. It is almost all though trees and is therefore shaded and slightly cooler. Strenuous walk, with plenty of up and down, along ... more

Couldn't get there because the bridge has gone in floods

Whoever knew that this walk existed, I didn't! As a destination, maybe not, but it's almost in town doesn't take too long and is more than worth the effort. Recommen ... more

Nice tide walking track along the stream

Not an official track but there is a track. Easy going for the most part but it does get steep near the end. Great place to have lunch.

Top blokes.

Totally amazing. Tough going climbing to the top and really muddy but so worth it. Highly recommend

My kids love riding at this place

Lovely track for beginners and more serious boarders. My 11 year old grandson loves it.

VERY muddy, but nice walk up to the Atene lookout that was pretty easy with only a gradual incline. The sign said this was a 2hr return walk but I completed it in an hour ... more

Had a fabulous night at Housie

$2850 charged for 16mins flight time in a Hughes, with backloads. Possibly the most expensive chopper company in the world. Would never use them again.

Absolutely love this walk. Candelabra Tawa, beautiful Ponga& Mamaku.. little stream..

nice quite place to work

This hut is in an awesome location. The woods surrounding it are just stunning. For a serviced hut though it was in a poor state. The sink didn't drain on one side so the ... more

Remote, rustic hut with open fire place. Plenty of room for tents nearby. Travelled in from Mangatarere road end. It took us 4 hours with a lunch stop of 20 minutes. Stee ... more
