This walk leads to Castle Point Lighthouse and then onto lookouts. The views from these points give great views of the sea and of Castle Point and the Wairarapa east coast. After these lookouts you can walk down and along the cliffs that the lighthouse is on.

Getting there

Castlepoint is located on Wairarapa's east coast about 1 hour's drive from Masterton. Turn right into Te Ore Ore Road on the northern outskirts of Masterton. This road becomes the Masterton Castlepoint Road and leads directly to Castlepoint Scenic Reserve.
