The Bird’s Eye Brooklyn View
This short walk gives a great view over the patchwork fields of the Motueka plains, across Tasman Bay and over to the rugged beauty of the Takaka Hill. This walk does not take long (about 30 minutes), but it involves a bit of stamina and reasonable fitness.

The Riwaka Resurgence
See rugged New Zealand bush and tumbling pure water the way it must have been thousands of years ago. A short, easy walk takes you to the place where the Riwaka River surfaces from its journey inside the Takaka Hill. Lovely picnic areas for all the family.
