High winds and heavy rain but such a beautiful coastline! One of my favourite parts of the North Island, spectacular views out to Kapiti Island. Fishing, great for kontikis, surfing and beach walks. Why not head up the hills for that panoramic photo of the ocean!

Perfect for a day trip, steep steps, but is kept well maintained. Can be scary if you have vertigo, lots of exposed bits and the swing bridges really swing :) frequent train to take you back to the starting point if you drive. Highly recommend!

The track is challenging but definitely worth-it. Lot of stairs to climb and descend. Sometimes the descending part can get hard if your afraid of heights, even more so if there is wind. Sunset views are spectacular.

Fun walk - great views. North to South is easier, but neither is difficult if you're moderately fit.

A challenging yet fun trail, we suggest parking your vehicle at Paekakariki shops then catching the train to Pukerua Bay station and start there. The trail will take about 3-3.5 hrs to finish, lots of steep steps and uncovered areas exposed to winds.

Must try, at least once when you are in Wellington. Tried this incredible route with 3 other amazing ladies and we did take extra hour as it’s quite challenging. Be mindful that it’s 10 km track with no toilets in between, lots of stairs with no handrails (some of them are very steep and endless ?), loose gravels, narrow path by the cliff and swinging bridges. Make sure you bring your own food and drinks as well, wear proper clothes and shoes, and walking pole will be a great help. We took the train from Wellington to Pukerua Bay, then finishing in Paekakariki,before catching the train back to Wellington. It has killer stairs and tracks but the view is amazing in a great day!
