About

Labyrinth Rocks Park is a short walk through limestone outcrops and native bush at Scott Road, Tākaka, in Golden Bay. Founded by an English geologist, the maze-like pathways reveal faces and characters formed naturally on the rock walls. A self-guided scavenger hunt lets visitors spot figures including kissing pigs, witches, cauldrons and a stegosaurus. The walk suits all ages, taking fifteen minutes to most of a day. Google lists it as a tourist attraction rated 4.4 from 713 reviews.

Defenetly worth checking out. Not too many cars can park though. You can easy spent more than 30 minuites in there. Toilet was very clean. A guided map shows you the way.

This place is absolutely mystical & spectacular. You can easily spend a couple hours walking the rock mazes. It's one of my favorite places I've ever been to.

Really cool spot! Families with children would especially love it, though we (retired couple in their sixties) really enjoyed it too. Keep your kids close! It truly is a labyrinth! While I think it's impossible to get seriously lost, there could be moments of doubt. Have fun! It's free!

Interesting rock formations to walk through with bush. There's a map with various rock formations marked on it (eg 'The Kissing Pigs'). I think I preferred it without these as most were underwhelming but rock formations themselves I thought were interesting. Worth a visit. Flat walking but roots and rock trip hazards and it's free!

It was super interesting but I kept getting lost and turned around following tracks that went nowhere lol..I couldnt find all the numbers..it's almost the place you need a drone to get the full experience of it properly..but definitely glad I checked it out Takaka is such a beautiful place with so many things to see and do
