Department of Conservation Information Sheet

The Ōtaki River Track is a two-hour return walk. It crosses a small bridge, follows a gravel path, and passes through kānuka and tall ferns. Visitors should stay on the marked track because the hillside is steep and the ground can become slippery after rain. Dogs are not allowed. The information sheet also asks trampers to carry at least one litre of water each and to take all rubbish home.

A final sentence reads: “By looking after the track, you help protect native plants and keep the area safe for everyone.”
