The landscapes of Hawke’s Bay begin with the high, forested Ruahine and Kaweka Ranges. From the mountains, the land steps down towards the coast, flattening out to become the Heretaunga Plains. A number of wide rivers run swiftly to meet the blue Pacific Ocean.
Hawke’s Bay Wine Country presents an eclectic mix of visual and sensual experiences. The region is New Zealand’s leading producer of red wines and has the greatest concentration of Art Deco architecture.
Cape Kidnappers, a stand out beacon of land discovered by Captain James Cook in 1769, set on a 6,000 acre sheep farm on some of the most dramatic coastline found in New Zealand. Cape Kidnappers represents all that is outstanding in the New Zealand Lodge experience stakes.
