Here are some must-do scenic walks in the Bay of Plenty: 📷
👉🏻 Mount Maunganui Summit Walk: The 40-minute walk to reach the 232-metre high summit is worth the effort! The view at the top is impressive.
👉🏻 Bowentown Domain: Enjoy stunning views of the upper harbour, Kaimaī Ranges and the ocean coastline.
👉🏻 Pāpāmoa Hills Regional Park: This is a hiker’s paradise. The 182-hectare park offers breathtaking views right along our coastline from Mount Maunganui to Whakatāne.

Chase the magic of winter waterfalls in the Bay of Plenty! ❄️🌿

Imagine standing in awe of nature’s beauty with low crowds, the peaceful bush, and crisp fresh air filling your lungs. 🌬️✨ The colder seasons offer a unique and serene experience that’s perfect for adventurers and nature lovers alike.

The Bay of Plenty is home to some of the most stunning waterfalls that become even more magical in the winter months. Here are a few gems (but not all!) to add to your bucket list:

1. Kaiate Falls - Nestled in a lush forest, these cascading falls offer a tranquil escape. The walk through native bush to reach the falls is just as enchanting as the destination itself. 🌲

2. McLaren Falls - Known for its breathtaking beauty, McLaren Falls is a must-visit. The sight of the water rushing over rocks, surrounded by winter’s serene landscape, is truly mesmerizing. 🍃🌊

3. Wairere Falls Whakatāne - Te Wairere Falls is a sacred landmark to all who descend from the Mataatua waka. The stream supplied fresh water to the town until 1924 and is easily accessible from the Whakatāne town centre 🏞️🏔️

Embrace the winter chill and let the magic of the Bay of Plenty’s waterfalls captivate your soul. 💙
