Experience the Heart of the Hill Country
Step directly from your doorstep into a rugged, working farm environment that captures the raw beauty of the rural landscape. Whether you are looking for an active adventure or a quiet escape into nature, the property offers a diverse range of terrain to explore.
Explore the Terrain
The extensive network of forestry roads provides the perfect infrastructure for exploring the farm. Guests are welcome to set out on foot or bring mountain bikes to navigate the winding tracks that cut through the hills. As you move through the property, you will see our farmed sheep and cattle grazing across the paddocks. Keep a sharp eye on the bush margins, as you may also spot wild deer, goats, or Arapawa sheep roaming the hills.
Impressive Flora
For those who appreciate New Zealand’s natural heritage, the farm features vast areas of forestry and lush native bush. This includes rare stands of untouched virgin native bush, offering a serene and prehistoric atmosphere perfect for birdwatching or finding a quiet moment of solitude among the ancient trees.
Iconic Landscapes
The landscape is defined by its dramatic scale and elevation. On a clear day, the horizon opens up to reveal stunning, unobstructed views of Mount Ruapehu. The combination of the deep green forest and the snow-capped peak in the distance creates a spectacular backdrop for photography or simply taking in the fresh air.
