Just 15 minutes north of Wellington - the coolest little capital in the world!

Hutt Valley: the gateway to the river, hills and mountains, filled with 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 left behind wonderful stories of New Zealand firsts; first settlement, first lighthouse, first dam and even first rugby match (in the North Island).

For more tips on what's hot in the Hutt Valley come and talk to our team at the Hutt City i-SITE Visitor Centre.
