🥾 This hike isn’t online, signposted, or even talked about — so it’s a true hidden gem! It’s one of our fave go-to adventures when we need to walk off a few burgers 🍔 and cocktails 🍹. Challenging but not dangerous like some of the bigger treks, it hits the sweet spot for a solid workout without the stress.

📍It’s called the Tereora Hikk Track, and there are 3 viewing tiers along the way — the first one even looks out over the airport runway! 🛫

🪢 The only way to find the start is to follow our GPS coordinates and look for the rope down the bank near a coconut tree 🌴 and a no parking sign. We recommend watching our video too, so you can get familiar with the landmarks before you go.

⚠️ There are a few markers, but not enough to rely on. So unless you're going with a local, your best bet is to follow the AllTrails map (link attached) 📲 — or wing it if you're feeling brave! We actually found this track on AllTrails ourselves and gave it a shot... now we know it like the back of our hand.

Compared to other Raro hikes, this one’s fairly tame — but we’d still rate it medium to advanced. There are steep sections and short rock climbs with chains 🧗‍♀️. Super rewarding if you’re into hiking, but skip it if it’s been raining 🌧️ — it gets slippery fast.
