Explore Canterbury this autumn with Walk Waitaha; an initiative promoting a series of self-guided walks and fun walking activities for you, your family and friends to enjoy. A perfect chance to connect to nature while moving your body and discovering parts of Christchurch city, Waimakariri and Selwyn Districts you may have never seen before.

Walk Waitaha aims to offer an alternative to the traditional Walking Festival which was unable to run in its usual form this year due to the Covid-19 red light setting. It offers a range of self-guided walks and walking activities to cater for every kind of walker.

Try something new with friends and whānau like disc golf in one of the four courses around Christchurch or Geocaching with over 2,500 caches in Christchurch to locate.
