In one of the largest remaining areas of kohekohe forest in New Zealand, Hemi Matenga Scenic Reserve offers lush native bush and gorgeous views. Walking options vary from easy to advanced.

A family-friendly beautiful bush walk through a stand of stunning nīkau palm trees, just off the old State Highway Road. The lower part of the walk can be enjoyed by anyone.
