Experience Details

iWalkWaiheke offers a bespoke and personalised walking holiday experience. Vicki, your host and ex-superyacht chef, has walked (and sailed) all over the world before setting up iWalkWaiheke. You will receive Superyacht food and service, on a relaxed and fun few days where all the details are taken care of for you.

With iWalkWaiheke, we can be very flexible with how far you walk each day, we offer you a suggested itinerary, but we offer a pick up from where you get to each day!

If you prefer a scenic drive and a swimming day, or thoroughly relaxed day off, all is possible with iWalkWaiheke.

What You’ll Experience

The Te Ara Hura trail is a stunning walking track around Waiheke Island. Te Ara Hura means ‘Discover the Way’ and that is surely what you will do, seeing the real Waiheke, one step at a time. To walk the trail is to really discover Waiheke Island, from the fabulous coastal headlands with million dollar views, the picturesque beaches dotted with quirky, quaint baches that give Waiheke its magical character, to the forest heart of the island with lush native bush, regenerating forests, streams, wetlands and birdlife aplenty, and on down to the far end of the Island – huge vistas, stunning coastal farms, rural, untouched and very, very New Zealand. This self-guided walk is done in 4 or 5 segments from 13km to 23km per day and offers a fabulous multi-day walk that encompasses the best of Waiheke Island scenery, character, landscape and food & wine. Everything is covered, from strolling the village foot paths to hiking through challenging terrain. A reasonable level of fitness is required. iWalkWaiheke also offers a 4 day 3 night version of this walk or contact us for bespoke tours.
