Nestled in a valley 10 to 15 minutes
drive from Johnsonville and approximately 25 minutes from Wellington
lies the beautiful Ohariu Valley.
An area of natural beauty with steep hills, large sheep and beef
farms and many rural lifestyle farmlets ranging in size from 2000m2
to 20 hectares.
|
Many of these
lifestyle farmlets are tucked away secluded up driveways ensuring
privacy sun and views. Many are horse orientated with arenas, stables
and pens with others running stock, sheep and of course the family
dog.
|
The popularity of these properties
is evident with the small number coming to the market at any one
time and quite often there is nothing available.
|
As
with all rural areas equestrian activities abound in Ohariu Valley.
With the Indoor Riding School at the entrance to the Valley many
visitors come from the city at weekends to relax and either ride
in the arena or book a local trek over the hills on a nice sunny
day.
|
On
any drive through the Valley you get that traditional English
Country feeling of horses walking down the road as they head off
to the local Pony Club grounds or maybe just getting out and enjoying
the beautiful scenery, fresh country air and friendly people.
|
At the head of the
Ohariu Valley Road is Spicers Forest, an area full of tracks ready
for exploring, horse trekking and orienteering. As part of our
National Te Araroa Walkway you can take the family on a walk past
Colonial Knob (Porirua) through Spicers Forest down Ohariu Valley
Road and across to Rifle Range Road at the crossroads and through
to Old Coach Road finishing at the Cable Car in the Botanical Gardens
Wellington.
|
A
lot of visitors from the city also take an enjoyable Sunday drive
to the Valley and then continue on to Makara Beach approximately
11km away
via Takarau Gorge which also is a very pleasant drive following
small streams through stunning rugged country, again dotted with
lifestyle properties hidden away enjoying their privacy.
