About
The 3-hour return walk along the Peach Cove Track requires skill and a reasonable level of fitness. The track has several steep climbs before it drops down to Peach Cove’s sandy beach. The track runs up one side of Bream Head Ridge and drops down the other side into Peach Cove, a pretty little sandy beach. You'll pass through attractive coastal broadleaf forest, and you can stay the night at the Peach Cove hut.
This track has lots of steep and narrow steps and is recommended for people who are reasonably fit and agile.
A section of the Peach Cove Track intersects with the Te Whara Track. There are alternative routes:
The nearby Mount Manaia Track is well worth a visit. The track has been upgraded and the views across the harbour are excellent.
The start of Peach Cove Track is signposted on the right about 4 km along Ocean Beach road.
Park just inside the entrance way as this access is a private driveway.
