Top Activities on the Ground in Paihia

If you like to explore at full throttle, this private adrenaline experience is perfect for you, with the 350cc power of a serious bike but the stability and road-holding of a classic trike. Roar through hills and valleys from Paihia to Opua, admire the Haruru Falls and Waitangi Lookout, see the Kawakawa Public Toilets (designed by the artist and architect Hundertwasser), then return to Paihia.

Race around native bush and back-country on the Northland coast at Waitangi Mountain Bike Park, located a short drive north of Waitangi and Paihia. Hire a top-of-the-line mountain bike and ride like the wind around some of the Park’s trails. Choose from over 20 trails – some suitable for beginners, others ready for more experienced riders.
