55m falls about 20 minutes walk from the carpark
Has a collection of local history from the Raglan area.
The summit of Karioi offers great views of Raglan and the west coast. The walk takes three hours each way. Is relatively difficult.
The gorge is reached by a track just down the hill from the car park. It is a steep track. The adventurous can turn left in the gorge and follow an overgrown track round the foot of the cliff to come up about a km further south and walk back along the gravel road (there is another track but it is overgrown and unmarked).
Learn to surf. Take the 3- or 5-day beginner surf course and learn in small groups of 4 people or less.
