WELCOMEWairarapa is a region of big skies, wide valleys

and small towns full of character.

Our coastline is dramatic and comes complete

with two lighthouses! With three forest parks

Wairarapa offers plenty of options for outdoor

adventure or just getting away from it all. Enjoy

our great cafés, restaurants, olive groves and

vineyards at the heart of the Classic New Zealand

Wine Trail. The Wairarapa is a great escape – all

within an hour’s drive or train ride from Wellington.

Some of our favourite Wairarapa things:

Tui Brewery at Mangatainoka – home of all things Tui

and a top spot for a tasting, a tour and retail fun.

See Manukura the white kiwi and other rare birds at the

beautiful Pukaha Mount Bruce National Wildlife Centre.

Masterton’s beautiful Queen Elizabeth Park has

a great playground, lake and miniature train. Add Aratoi

Museum of Art & History and The Wool Shed to your list of

things to explore.

Tararua Forest Park is an accessible wilderness close

to Masterton.

Riversdale and Castlepoint are great Kiwi beaches –

head there to surf, swim, fish and play golf. A walk up to

Castlepoint’s Lighthouse is a must-do.

Stonehenge Aotearoa, a full-scale working adaptation

of England’s Stonehenge, near Carterton.

Drive out to Gladstone for rolling hills, lush valleys,

vineyards and a great country pub.

Greytown, a country village with metropolitan style

and sophisticated boutique shopping .

Taste some of New Zealand’s best wines from the

many family-owned vineyards around Martinborough.

Palliser Bay – walk to the spooky Putangirua Pinnacles,

see fur seals and Cape Palliser Lighthouse.

Bike the Rimutaka Cycle Trail – hills, gullies, farmland,

lake views and the ocean – it has it all.

See the world’s last remaining Fell engine, on display

at the Fell Locomotive Museum in Featherston.

A wine village packed with charm

Martinborough is surrounded by more

than twenty cellar doors, most within easy

walking or cycling distance of each other.

Hire a bike and check them out.

Featherston’s history is strongly linked

to the railway – these days it’s the spot to

rest, recover and refuel after biking

the nearby Rimutaka Cycle Trail. Stock up

at C’est Cheese and check out the new

Gateway complex.

Good looking Greytown is a Victorian

gem. Stop for good food, great coffee

and sensational Schoc chocolate.

Retail therapy in the distinctive stores

is highly recommended.

Carterton has art in its very heart –

look around for art on display on panels

around town as you browse vintage and

collectables stores. At the Clareville Bakery

try the lamb cutlet and kumara mash pie,

winner of NZ’s Supreme Pie award 2014.

Masterton is home to The Vintage Aviator, an extraordinary collection of vintage aircraft. This plus Henley Lake, golf courses, a golf driving range, indoor pools and hydro slide, movie theatre and plenty of shopping means you’ll want time here.

The Wairarapa features boutique wineries that are relatively small and typically

family-owned, with winemakers devoting themselves to producing superior

hand-crafted wines.

The Wairarapa’s three sub-regions of Martinborough, Gladstone and Masterton are located on ancient alluvial river terraces of deep, free-draining gravel overlaid with gravely silt loam. They have low rainfall,

hot summers and a long dry autumn. This, combined with low yields,

provides the right balance of warm days (creating ripeness) and cool nights (creating elegance) for producing top quality Pinot Noir, and other

early ripening varieties.

T H E W I N E S O F W A I R A R A P A

Many wineries charge a nominal service fee that is often refunded upon purchase. It may be best to enquire or make a booking if your tasting group

is 10 or more people.Opening hours may vary in winter.

Check at Visitor Centres or www.wairarapanz.com
