The Bay of Islands Walking Weekend has a huge variety of walks.
We walk many of the islands and remote spots on the peninsula that are hard to access as individuals – the walking weekend makes it affordable and accessible. These walks are spectacular with breath taking scenery, amazing flora and fauna.
This is a must do all-time favourite for walkers on the weekend – the Moturua and Motuarohia Island Walk. Travel aboard the R Tucker Thompson, which is a total experience in itself – this amazing olde tall ship with its fantastic crew is a real treat and a perfect way to travel to your destination in the Bay of Islands.
Sail past the spot where Captain Cook anchored in 1769 just before we land barefooted on Motuarohia Island. Walk and talk - hearing some history of Cook, the firing of a canon and the theft of kumara from the locals. Learn of the ghastly murder of the whole family of Robertons who farmed there.

Walking The Islands Made Accessible And Affordable
The Bay of Islands Walking Weekend has a huge variety of walks.
Martha Mine Pit Rim Walk
Waihi’s Pit Rim Walkway/Cycleway is a most enjoy-able walk that starts at the Waihi Information Centre and also ends there.
Queen Charlotte Track
A spectacular coastal walk among lush native bush.
Flinders Island
Rugged mountain ranges full of wildlife and flora.
Lake Okareka Wetland And Board Walk
Lake Okareka is approximately 9 kms from Rotorua and is different from other lakes in the district for the fact that it is surrounded by farmland in a picturesque setting of hills and native forest.
Mt Alford challenge
Only four of the Tower Trampers headed off from Christchurch to Mt Alford. Two of us had not done this tramp before so we were certainly up for the challenge.
Record Numbers Take To New Zealand's National Walking Trail
Record numbers of people took to the Te Araroa Trail over the summer season, with some sections of the national trail recording more than double the number of walkers anticipated.
Three Days in Crowd Paradise
It had been almost 60 years since I had been to “the grandest of all the special temples of Nature I was ever permitted to enter” (John Muir).
Walk Through Wellington's History
Queen Victoria’s statue seemed an appropriate starting point for me to set off on the new Commonwealth Walkway – even if the good queen lorded it over the British Empire well before it softened into the Commonwealth.
Burkes Pass To Becks
Great New Zealand Trek… Stage 12.
