  • Arataki Visitor Centre - Waitakere Ranges
    Your journey begins with a relaxing drive into the Waitākere Ranges rainforest, home to native flora and birdlife. Stop at the Arataki Visitor Centre for panoramic views across the rainforest, Auckland’s two harbours, and the vast West Coast. This cultural hub also features traditional Māori carvings, where your guide will share the significance of these works and their connection to the land.
  • Mercer Bay Loop
    Continue to a guided Mercer Bay coastal cliff walk, where breathtaking viewpoints open out over dramatic sea cliffs and the powerful Tasman Sea. This awe-inspiring walk offers a true sense of Auckland’s wild beauty, with sweeping ocean vistas, coastal forest, and deep cultural significance woven into the landscape.
  • Piha Beach
    We stop at a stunning viewpoint overlooking Piha beach and the Tasman Sea before going down to the black sand beach. Marvel at the Lion Rock, Piha’s most iconic landmark, and see the Māori carving. Lion Rock stands watching over the waves, sitting majestically between Piha and Little Piha Beaches. Feel the black sand beneath your feet as you stroll along Piha beach - one of the most awe-inspiring beaches the world has to offer and watch the surf waves rolling in. Piha is popular with experienced surfers, but it’s also a wonderful spot for picnics, relaxing walks, and swims – under the watchful eye of the famous Piha Surf Club. There’s a sense of muscularity about the Tasman Sea’s attention to the rocky coastline, and an intimacy created by the dense rainforest that crowds the dunes. The west is wild and have a remote, untamed beauty that's good for the soul.
