Mākara Walkway

This loop walk climbs to vantage points with spectacular views - farmland, a beach and gun emplacements will keep kids interested.

This 6.7 km route sits in the sweet spot for a half-day outing — long enough to feel rewarding, short enough to leave the afternoon free. Expect around 1 hour and 29 minutes.

The route nearly completes a loop, with start and end points within easy walking distance of each other. Minimal logistics required. Follow the MW waymarkers throughout to stay on the official trail line.

As a Local Walking Network (LWN) route, this trail has a strong community character. It serves both regular local walkers and visitors discovering the area for the first time.
