Take on one of the many short walks that Hawke's Bay has to offer, it's the best way to fill part of the day, explore and connect with nature.
You are spoilt for choice when it comes to short walks, whether you fancy a native bush walk with fantails fluttering by your shoulder, somewhere fun for the dogs to swim, searching caves or taking in the sea breeze, you have all of it plus some to pick and choose from.
Stalactites, stalagmites and calcite wall coverings are a treat for first time cavers exploring the Mangaone Caves. Follow the route along private farmland (be sure to leave gates as you find them), and as you tackle the initial steep section enjoy views out to Mahia before commencing the last part of the trail. Once you arrive at the 40m long cave, follow the stairs down and let the adventure begin!
Make you you pack a head torch for the cave and sturdy footwear!
