12 Hours Ōamaru
Ōamaru is more than meets the eye. While Steampunk is this Waitaki town’s usual calling card there’s also a host of local food and drink to try, native wildlife to discover, inventive art to enjoy and friendly locals to meet.
Neat Places is a guide to all the big and beautiful, small and secluded, hustling, bustling favourite spots around Aoteroa.
The Waitaki region has got it all - the ocean, mountains, bike paths, walking tracks, great food and award-winning wine.
With so much to do, see, and try it’s crucial to plan ahead and make the most of your time here. While you won’t be able to fit every local Waitaki gem into just a couple of days, we reckon some time is better than no time at all and this guide will take you through the best bits.
