Waitahinga Trails is a collection of walks at the disused Whanganui Water Catchment Reserve. The walks cater to different fitness levels with picnic spots and lookouts along the way.
Most of the walking trails are under native forest canopy with a combination of original forest and very old regenerated forest. Peaceful and beautiful, the Waitahinga Dam makes for a worthwhile destination.
Please be aware that the trails are closed on Tuesdays each week and for the months of July and August.
The Wanganui Tramping Club has more information about walks in our district.
