This picture is the Chasm Walkway near the Glowworm Caves.

Try the Haurangi Forest Park and Waiohine Gorge, a spectacular river gorge and native forest area with the longest swing bridge of its kind in New Zealand. 

As the name suggests, when you are in the cave, turn the lights out, and see a spectacular sight! A miniature night sky made by thousands of glowworms.

Respecting the farmers gates and land, you'll also find excellent tramping here, with awesome views of the surrounding plains and other mountain ranges.

To get there, head to Martinborough, turn right at square, a few km's down the road turn left at Dry River road and look for the AA signs.

Head south west to the Palliser Bay and check out the beaches. You'll find exceptional deep sea fishing for Crayfish, Blue Cod, Paua and others. Check out this Ocean Beach sunset!

Drive past the Glowworm Caves and soon you will be driving through a fabulous gorge, heading towards the Haurangi Forest Park, keep going and you hit 4x4 track.  As you get further along it gets harder, and may only be suitable for  dirt bikes or short wheel base 4x4.  

Great for mountain bike or dirt bike riding all along the way. You'll also find liquid refreshments along the way, there's a small waterfall on the road side a few minutes before reaching the track.
