Reprising a legendary adventure from the early days of the Festival, guide Gary Wilton from Make Tracks will lead an intrepid group of explorers through a steep valley to the centre of the eastern end. Heavy going at times, but a rare chance to see a part of the island like no other. Recuperate and swap stories at Man O’ War vineyard afterwards. $25 includes two-way charter bus.

You also have the option to purchase a Festival Finale ticket for $35pp if you wish.

Getting to the walk start: the charter bus will start at Matiatia and make stops at Oneroa, Surfdale, Ostend and Onetangi Residents Hall before heading to the walk start. For the return the charter bus will make stops at Rorohara (for those who have purchased a Finale Event ticket), Onetangi, Ostend, Surfdale and Oneroa before ending at Matiatia Ferry Terminal.
