Whirinaki Trax is a family run operation. We have a strong commitment to the area and have a background in local education and community groups. We offer three products:

1. A guided walking experience in the Whirinaki Forest Park among the native podocarp bush. The walks can be tailored to suit fitness and interest levels and range from one hour through to four hours in duration. A picnic style lunch and snacks are included, as is the commentary on points of interest during the trip out to the forest. Time permitting, we travel to vantage points during the trip and explain local geology and land-use.
2. A pick up and drop off service for independent travellers. This is for customers who require access to the forest, are confident in their hiking ability and want to do their own thing once in the area. We offer track advice and information and pick up hikers at a pre-arranged time. This way you are able to take advantage of the network of Department of Conservation huts and tracks in the area.
3. A hinterland tour into the Galatea Valley and Te Urewera National Park area. This is a day tour that can be tailored to suit the customer’s needs. The options that we can take advantage of and visit are a Biodynamic Vineyard, an Ostrich farm, a production forest operation, and Aniwhenua falls. These are just some examples.

The three products operate on demand for a minimum of 4 people. We usually operate out of Rotorua but can organise tours out of Taupo and Whakatane. We are flexible and want to make our region available and accessible to visitors.
