The walkway, along some of New Zealand North Island's most breath-taking coastline, also features tracks across beautiful farmland. The track connects Stony Bay and Fletcher Bay and takes 3-4 hours. You can walk in either direction but take into account the time to get there and back. Alternatively there are organised walks available that include transport from Coromandel and pick up at the other end of the track.

Nothing there, minimal phone signal which is great! Perfect to relax and enjoy the Coromandel

The Coromandel Walkway from Fletcher Bay to Stony Bay (or other way around) all up north in Coromandel is simply stunning. It's a relatively easy walk (3hrs one way) but has some of the best views of Coromandel. #hiking #newzealand
