For a paper map pop into the visitor centre for a trail map or scroll through the online brochure below and/or website link for details. The local visitor centre can arrange personalised tours by appointment only. It’s.hilarious to see the imagination run riot as techi-coloured cows hang from lampposts and rest against bollards.

Every cow has a documented plaque outlining the artist’s story and the sponsor behind the art installation.

This is a great opportunity to get the family involved in snapping shots of cows and getting into a holiday mood.

For visitors interested in the Waikato art and heritage trails combine your cow trail with the Waikato heritage trail.
