Bell Rock Loop Track

Located in Boundary Stream area in the Hawke’s Bay region

This track climbs through forest to Bell Rock, an iconic lookout with expansive views.

From the Pohokura Road entrance, the Bell Rock Loop Track climbs through a forest of gnarled broadleaf, horopito/pepperwood, fuchsia and mataī. The track emerges onto the range though a dense stand of mountain holly providing spectacular midsummer floral displays. Bell Rock is 40 minutes further along the left track.

The right track returns to Pohokura Road via a 4WD track and provides panoramic views, including the Mohaka valley to Te Kooti’s Lookout and further afield to Whirinaki Te Puaa-Tāne Conservation Park. Return via Pohokura Road.

Bell Rock has dangerous drop offs. Extreme care is required. Always supervise children.

Boundary Stream Mainland Island is located approximately one hour's drive north of Napier. Follow State Highway 2 to Tutira, turn left at Tutira onto Matahorua Road then left onto Pohokura Road.
