Lake Kaniere Walkway

Starting (or ending) at the road end just past Sunny Bight picnic area, the Lake Kaniere Walkway is a four hour tramp around the western shore of Lake Kaniere. The walkway emerges at the southern end of the lake on the Dorothy Falls Road.

It is a four hour return walk back along the same track.

Highlights of the walk include many picturesque bays, numerous forest streams and lush lakeside forest. A lookout point over the lake is offered part way up Mt Upright/Te Taumata o Uekanaku. 

There are numerous places to take a dip. Or when you have finished walking or riding Hans Bay is a popular local swimming spot.
