My wife and I had a great ride from Paeroa to Waihi and back - great scenery and an almost entirely flat track. The bikes and other equipment which we hired from Hauraki Bike Hire (101 Normanby Road, Paeroa) were excellent and Michael and his colleagues couldn’t have been nicer. While we got back just before they closed, we would have been able to have left them outside if we had returned after closing time, so there was no need to rush.

We had the most amazing day at Bullwool Farm today! What an incredible place. Everything is constructed to the highest quality and immaculately kept, the animals were all happy to see us, we loved the creative ways of feeding some of them (like the xylophone feeder!!). The little buckets of food were fantastic and a great learning experience for the kids. We spent most of the day there and could’ve spent longer. Everywhere you look there’s something else to see/do!! We will be making the trip back to Paeroa again JUST to visit again.

We rented four bicycles for a ride up to Waihi. Mike at “the hub” could not have been more helpful and kind, even when we arrived back late and reported that we had lost one of the helmets. Thank you Mike! The bikes were high quality and the process to rent was easy.
