Te Rerenga Wairua-Motupōhue

Cape Reinga to Bluff

From the northern cape of Te Rerenga Wairua, to the southern bluff of Motupōhue, Te Araroa spans the length of Aotearoa New Zealand.

Te Araroa is one of the world’s most diverse long-distance walking trails. The route winds its way over high mountain passes, around volcanoes, across sweeping plains, alongside meandering rivers, and through bustling cities and rural towns. Across its 3,000 kilometres, Te Araroa unveils the unique beauty of Aotearoa New Zealand’s landscapes and communities.
