Day 1. ISLAND DISCOVERY DAY

Catch the 9am ferry from downtown Auckland and we will meet you on the Island at the Matiatia Ferry Terminal. A quick day briefing, with maps, picnic lunch and trail guidance.

Choose to walk a challenging 18km or a more leisurely 12km, following the breath taking tracks and trails either from Matiatia or from Oneroa, through our quaint village, coastal headlands, picturesque beaches and bays, past quirky baches, vistas and vineyards, following a mix of coastal paths, bush tracks and quiet back roads on to stunning Onetangi Beach. Stop for a swim and lunch at Oneroa or Palm Beach, and/or wine tastings at world-class wineries Obsidian or Casita Miro on the way and then it’s on to your beautiful, relaxed accommodation.

Let your walking host Vicki, (ex super yacht chef) look after you with a delicious home cooked meal.

Day 2. TRACKS AND TRAILS DAY

Enjoy a continental breakfast and begin your day along the stunning Te Whau coastal track and through Rocky Bay and Whakanewha Regional Park. Here you cross the heart of the Island forests, Nikau groves, wetlands, regenerating bush and dense native bush.

Today’s walk is 12km, and you may also enjoy the rare birdlife, high tide swimming, optional wine tastings at Batch Winery and unique Waiheke scenery.

Choose to head out for dinner at the fabulous restaurants and cafes along the waterfront, just 10 minute walk - or opt for fish and chips on the beach, a kiwi classic or Vicki will make you something at home :)

Day 3. Coastal Headlands, or Eastern end Adventure

Today you’ll discover the fabulous coastal tracks of the western end of Waiheke and breath taking views of the some of the most beautiful coastal farms and vineyards in New Zealand. The track leads through serene Te Wharau Bay and around Park Point, and back through historic Church Bay and up to Mudbrick Winery for a delicious late lunch and wine tasting.
