Guided Walks

Kahurangi National Park

Experience the real heart of New Zealand

Bush and Beyond is the original guiding company in Kahurangi National Park. We are the only company who ‘specialise’ in Kahurangi, and we are very passionate about it! We have been guiding walkers throughout the park since 1993.

We really do know how to show you the best of this natural wonderland. You can choose the Heaphy Track, the Old Ghost Road or any of our other great walks and experience first hand, the beauty and diversity of this unique part of New Zealand.

You will hike through ancient forests, cross crystal-clear rivers and enjoy breathtaking views of the mountains and the sea. You will also relax in comfortable accommodation, savour delicious meals cooked for you every night and learn fascinating facts and stories from your friendly and knowledgeable guides.

Bush and Beyond’s guided walks cater to the abilities of all trampers, from beginners to seasoned adventurers. Our knowledge of Kahurangi’s flora and fauna will complement your own curiosity and appreciation of nature.

“Being guided on the Heaphy Track by Maryann and Bill of Bush and Beyond was a phenomenal experience for Peter and me and other members of our family. We were so well looked after, supported and fed. The trip was a highlight of our outdoor experiences – and we have had many.”
Right Hon. Helen Clark
Former Prime Minister of New Zealand
