If you’re heading to the region for a family holiday, Havelock North has a lot to offer. Off The Track have private cottages to suit your stay. They are handy to local attractions and are on the same property as our restaurant and bar. (For if you don’t feel like cooking)
There are an endless number of family fun activities to do in the region but we’ve done some digging and listed our favourites below:
Havelock North’s new playground
The Village green has just opened a new playground in April 2017. Hang out at the skate park, on the children’s playground or play with the water activities. Take a picnic and enjoy a day in the Hawke’s Bay sun.
All aboard! This is another great family day out. The gardens house The Keirunga Park Railway, 846 metres of miniature railway. Up and over the hills, through tunnels and under the foot bridge waving at all the spectators as you go! You have a beautiful view of the gardens and Havelock North’s great native park. The trains only run on the 1st and 3rd Sunday of the month so check the Facebook page for updates.
Get amongst the native park and view the spectacular scenery that Havelock North has to offer. There are 5 popular walking tracks that allow you to explore by foot, all suited for different abilities. Walking times can vary from 40 minutes to 2.5 hours depending on which track you take. Spend the day searching for the native birds and unique plants.
This is a great idea for if you are planning to visit on a hot summer’s day. With amazing waterslides and pools there is something for all ages, and even a train, go carts and mini golf for those non swimmers.
Flip Out Trampoline Arena
And if the weather turns bad this is a great indoor activity for the whole family. There is a designated kid’s area and a foam pit to practice all your moves.
Don’t forget our restaurant and bar are perfectly suited for your family. We have a great playground and kids menu to cater for the little ones and a beautiful deck overlooking the amazing Havelock hills for you to relax and unwind after your day of activities. There is something to suit all tastes and budgets so come and dine with us!
