Welcome to the Hutt Valley

The heart of the Wellington Region.

The Hutt Valley is just 15 minutes drive north of Wellington City and extends along the northern and eastern shores of Wellington harbour and inland along the Hutt River for about 30km.

 

Have a look at the Hutt Valley section of the Air New Zealand, Wellington international airport arrivals video on You Tube.

 

Hutt Valley is the gateway to the river, hills and mountains.  In this setting Hutt Valley is full of mountain biking, walking and tramping trails from flat passive to extreme.

Hutt Valley has a fantastic history of Maori and the first European settlement which has evolved to now offer excellent arts and cultural activities.  Dive into the stories at attractions like TheNewDowse, Stansborough and Maori Treasures.

Unique shopping opportunities are dotted throughout the valley but Jackson Street, Petone and the upmarket Days Bay and Eastbourne are outstanding.  Westfield Queensgate is the largest shopping centre in the region and offers the more contemporary shopping experience.
