Rorookuri Loop Track
Rorookuri was an island in the original Te Whanganui an Oroto lagoon and its archaeological features are of much interest. One of these, Otiere Pā, was defended by two transverse ditches and a bank across the narrow headland, both of which can still be seen today.
The Rorookuri Loop Track follows the base of Rookuri Hill, past Otiere Pā, and back to the carpark.
Rorookuri Summit Track
The other option is to walk over the top of Rorookuri Hill and back around either side. The summit offers magnificent views of Hawke’s Bay.
