Raglan offers visitors plenty of walking options from panoramic Mount Kariori summit to the glorious Bridal Veil waterfall. Enjoy pottering along the estuary boardwalk or explore further afield.
Waireinga Bridal Veil Falls features on our #nzmustdo waterfalls destination. Misty spray from the curtain of water dropping into the pool below is beautiful.

The Karioi track from Te Toto Gorge car park offers fantastic views of the rugged west coast, north towards the Manukau Heads. Looking south on a clear day, you can see the four peaks of Mt Tongariro, Mt Ngauruhoe, Mt Ruapehu and Mt Taranaki
