The Full Circle – Russell to Russell via Paihia
Saturday 12th October
Leaving Russell, you head towards Okiato, which is the site of New Zealand’s first capital. Walk along stunning mangrove boardwalks and then into bush where the terrain is more challenging. Catch the car ferry from Okiato to Opua. The picturesque walk from Opua to Paihia takes you around many points, beaches, and bays. Catching the Bay Belle passenger ferry from Paihia back to Russell.
It is a great sense of accomplishment having completed the full circle that many think you can only circumnavigate either by car or ferry!
