Accommodation

Local Experiences

At Poronui there is nothing that you have to do, but plenty that you can do. The property is a wonderful outdoor playground with more than 100 miles of roads and tracks that wind their way through the hills, virgin beech forest, open grassland and along the streams for exploring the native bush and wilderness. Fish for superb brown and rainbow trout in pristine waters, or discover the hauntingly beautiful landscape on horseback or mountain bike. Assisted by your personal guide, try your hand at deer stalking, eeling, sporting clays, field archery, air rifle shooting or unique Maori cultural experiences. After a day of activity, relax in the sauna or steam room, have a massage or simply curl up in front of the fire with a good book.
