A playful, creative journey with a splash of fascinating history starting at the coast and heading inland for a tricky twisty on a classic holiday game.  Please note, this Journey has one destination that has a cost associated with it when you get there.

(NOTE: remember to bring a scrapbook or paper and some pens for some creative challenges)

A Tricksy Mini Putt

The Hideaway is a fantastic destination for all ages. The main attraction is a truly impressive car museum with dozens of prime condition Holden cars surrounded by a hoard of amazing memorabilia. For the more active in the familiy there is a super fun downhill luge and one of New Zealand's top mini-putt courses - a full 18 holes worth.

A Sculptors Pose

Te Kupenga Stone Sculpture Society's mission is to 'Revive, preserve, promote and foster the art of stone carving using Taranaki Andesite and the understanding of its properties and values.'  Their outdoor working space is open to the public to explore artworks at all stages of design.

Creative Storytelling

Big Wave Territory is a 2011 public place artwork by New Zealand artist John Reynolds. Installed at the southern end of the New Plymouth Coastal Walkway, it is full of references to local Taranaki history and culture.

A Curated Tour

Puke Ariki is an integrated knowledge hub comprising museum, library, research centre, museum store and i-SITE for a visitor experience that is like no other. It is a place where people come together and where there is a place for everyone.
