There’s nothing like going for a beautiful long walk on a warm summery day. If you’ve not been before, try the Te Waihou Walkway. This short 3 hour round trip meanders in and out of native bush, along the Waihou River and past the Blue Spring. Internationally recognised for its high clarity and turquoise colour, the water here is bottled and sold, and supplies Putaruru with no treatment necessary. Crystal clear, it feels like faires could live here!
