Walkington takes the stress out of planning and adds all the indulgence in! Whether you’re after a half-day escape or a full-day adventure, we offer both guided and self-guided walks across some of the most breathtaking trails in the Wellington region.
We’ll collect you directly from your accommodation and transport you to one of our handpicked scenic tracks – coastal paths, forested hills, or skyline ridges. From there, we provide everything you need for a seamless experience: trail notes or a knowledgeable local guide, fresh barista coffee to start your day, a kiwi style picnic lunch, snacks to keep you going, and plenty of water. At the end of your walk, we’ll be waiting to collect you and return you to your accommodation, or wherever you wish to visit next!
