Experience manaakitanga at Te Rito Marae
Te Rito Marae Stay and Cultural Experience (overnight stay on a marae with meals)
The Twin Coast journey is rich in Māori culture, encounters with which take many forms. On the trail around 10km west of Kawakawa, the people of Te Rito offer marae stays and visits featuring a whakatau (a welcome and storytelling), accommodation, and home-cooked kai (food). Te Rito caters for groups of twelve or more but welcome enquiries from manuhiri (visitors). Nau mai Haere mai!
"It's not really about the biking. The Twin Coast is at the historical heart of Aotearoa New Zealand. The trail is just a great way to experience a range of physical and cultural landscapes that will stay with you long after you've finished the ride." (Jonathan Kennett, Cycling Guru)
