Te Mata Peak

Lookout in Hawke's Bay
If there's one experience you shouldn't miss, it's sunset at Te Mata Peak. The sweeping 360-degree views stretch across vineyards, farmland, the coastline and distant mountain ranges, creating an unforgettable panorama as the sky transforms with colour. Whether you choose to drive to the summit, tackle one of the many walking tracks, or explore the mountain bike trails, the reward is well worth the effort. It's one of those places that makes you stop, breathe, and take it all in. Without a doubt, Te Mata Peak was one of the highlights of our Hawke's Bay adventure.
