BEST TRAVELING PLACES TO GO Rarewa Beach, Far North, (NEW ZEALAND)

Golden Stairs Walk - Whangape Harbour to Mitimiti Beach @ Northland, New Zealand

This is definitely one of the most amazing day walks in Northland (if not one of the most iconic in NZ) - Huge fiord-like deep sound of a long narrow harbour valley cutting its way through to the pounding Tasman sea. This links to the remote and secrete northern most part of the wild Mitimiti Beach. 3 hours of walk on ridge one way from Pawarenga end of the Whangape Haroubr at low tide, and then another 1-2 hours scroll on beach towards Mitimiti to meet our most wonderful hosts Jill and Tiny (they dropped us off at Pawarenga earlier and picked up from north end of Mitimiti beach).

The name Golden Stairs Walk comes from the blaze of Kowhai flower display in the valley in Spring time - it looks like god painted the mountains with gold splashes!! The view is something you have never seen before - jaw dropping!

The best place to stay is of course at Jill and Tiny's cottage at Panguru, north Hokianga Harbour: Their place is absolutely straight from a Tourism New Zealand brochure and they are the most wonderful people you will ever meet!

PS - 4WD is considered most appropriate way of getting to the cottage as there is a ford in the middle of their driveway - a classic kiwiana that gold can't buy!!! There is a beautiful waterfall in their backyard forest (part of Warawara Forest) which takes hours of fun to explore.

Kei te tautoko te toihau o Te Runanga o Te Rarawa i te tohe a tetahi roopu Maori, kia aukatihia atu nga umanga mahi tapoi o Ahipara i te huarahi matua ki te moana. E ai ki te roopu kaitiaki o Te Kohanga, e tuwhera ana te huarahi ki te hapori whanui, engari ano nga umanga mahi moni. Te Karere Maori News TVNZ - 30 November 2010

A drive in the far north NZ

When Quentin asks if you want to go for a drive, you always know its going to be interesting. West coast beach to East coast beach in a couple of hours, not to many places you can do that .
