Walk

 

Our two-day and two-night walking package is a special opportunity. Walk over our New Zealand sheep and beef farm with mountain to sea views, and enjoy unique accommodation at The Bunkhouse, catered meals, and local gem, the Tutaenui Reservoir. A real adventure awaits you!

 

ARRIVAL DAY

From 4 pm – 6 pm: Arrive at The Bunkhouse and settle in with your group. The Bunkhouse has two rooms with six single bunks in each room, all made up of quality linen and towels.

You will be welcomed by your hosts and given an overview of your experience to ensure you get the best out of your stay. A floral ice bucket and one bottle of complementary bubbles is included. 

Your dinner and dessert will be provided but will require some input from your group such as cooking meat on the BBQ. Instructions provided.

Take a short 30-minute walk to a picnic table and watch the sunset. Enjoy a drink/nibbles here. A real highlight for many! All nibbles and refreshments are BYO.

DAY ONE OF WALKING

Wake up in nature and enjoy your breakfast on the sunny covered deck. Pick from our intensive vegetable gardens produce for your lunch provisions. Farm-fresh cooked meat is also supplied for your wraps. We will also provide plenty of homemade baking for your lunch, morning, and afternoon tea. 

THE WALK: covering 10 km – 15 kms: Moderate – Hard

  • Views of Mt. Ruapehu and Mt. Taranaki
  • Views of the Tasman Sea
  • Variety of terrain and elevation over 1500-acre of private farmland

Your evening meal and dessert will be delivered to The Bunkhouse. This will include fresh salads and fruits from our gardens. Your evening meal can be enjoyed in your own time. Relax on The Bunkhouse covered deck with your crew for the evening and check out the bright stars before hitting the hay for the night.

DAY TWO WALKING OR BIKING

Enjoy a leisurely start to your day. Relax with a good coffee on the deck as you look out to the gardens and hills you walked on day one.

Help yourself to the fresh breakfast and lunch provisions provided or picked from our gardens. Your lunch can be eaten at one of the many beautiful spots or picnic tables along the way.

Enjoy a guided tour of our extensive gardens

Head off on a half-day walk on the southern side of our farm, which also has mountain-to-sea views, OR depart our farm and head to the Tutaenui Reservoir, located close by, at the end of our road. This easier 5km loop takes you around two bodies of water and stunning native bush. The all-weather limestone tracks make it also perfect to bike around, should you wish to pack your bikes too! Or hire one of our Four Ebikes. Your other option is to complete one of three permanent Orienteering courses located at the Tutaenui Reservoir.
