This is an all-weather walk around the curious limestone formations of pancake rocks and blowholes. With the exception of an optional short section with steps, the walk is suitable for wheelchairs (with assistance). Spectacular views, geological oddities, coastal forest, rich birdlife and marine mammals are highlights along this walk.
Wheelchair friendly for most of the walk. Because the return track suddenly emerges on the highway make sure children are not running ahead. Keep to the formed path and don't go beyond safety barriers. A lifebelt near Sudden Sound Blowhole is a reminder that it's very dangerous to stray from the track and to take special care of children.
Matariki is a time where people, whānau, and communities gather together to remember the year that has passed, to celebrate the present, and to plan for the next year. It is a time to remember our loved ones who are no longer with us, to feast and celebrate with our relatives and friends, and to look towards the future and the hope of a season full of bounty.
