There are bike and walking tracks alongside the River from Petone at the South end heading northwards to Upper Hutt; if you cross the road and/or rail pedestrian bridges you can walk a loop track and park your car at various entry/exit points. Walking by Shandon Golf course is pleasant and the track is fairly flat, apart from the gradual gradient as you ride north up the valley.

With an entry to the popular Butterfly Creek or Bus Barn bush walks so close to our BnB you will be on the track within a few minutes walk from walking out the door! A must-do activity for many of our guests with a reasonable level of fitness, the track up and over one of the local hills gets the heart pumping and provides many lovely views of the harbour en route.

Food scene
A smaller cafe than the popular Seashore Cabaret in Petone with similarly great food and coffee, this cafe has the same quirky vibe and as it is situated in the Gracefield industrial area it opens early to catch the local workers.
