This walk leads to Castlepoint Lighthouse and then onto lookouts. The views from these points give great views of the sea and of Castlepoint and the Wairarapa east coast. After these lookouts you can walk down a set of stairs and along the cliffs. Steer clear of the cliff edges which are subject to tidal waves.
Castlepoint is located on Wairarapa's east coast about 1 hour's drive from Masterton. Follow Te Ore Ore Road on the northern outskirts of Masterton. This road becomes the Masterton Castlepoint Road and leads directly to Castlepoint Scenic Reserve.
