Visit Lower Hutt

From the Hutt River to the bush-clad hills, Hutt Valley is home to some of the region's best walking and mountain bike trails. Add to that the picturesque townships of Petone and Eastbourne, and bustling collection of art galleries, cafes and restaurants - all just a short 15 minute drive from Wellington. The area also has an ancient history that includes New Zealand's first organised settlement and Maori mythology of taniwha (sea monsters).
