The publicity doesnt do it justice. An easy walk around some out of this world geological formations. Some sign post could help as some of the formations (such as the water slide) were a bit hard to discern, but we loved the kissing pigs. We loved looking for the small figures (I guess we are big kids).
We really appreciated that you could take your dog, as there are few places that you can.

This was soo much fun, great if you have children as they can go around trying to spot the hidden toys but we had fun also trying to spot them. A toilet is also here at the beginning of the walk.

Takaka's best kept secret. We found it really interesting. Well laid out pathways amongst the rocks. Cool on a hot day. The map at the entrance is quite useful, and we thought that a couple of labels on the main pathways would have helped, but part of the fun is getting a little lost in the labyrinth. Highly recommended for visitors.

Great little walk. A walk I could actually take my pup on- he loved it. Lots of little paths, tunnels, dead ends. Luckily had a little map I got at the start of the walk. Loved the random little toys placed everywhere.

Loved Labyrinth Rocks.... easy to find as well sign posted - car park - great for children of all ages - if you get chance to take a small plastic toy etc then do so as it seem that lots of other people had as they were left sitting, standing or places in niches, on the rocks or little cubby holes... cute... nice reminder to leave behind and great for little children to spot guess, makes it fun, we are adults but still lovely to see... fabulous fun walking around the rock as it feels like a natural maze made by Mother Nature. There should be maps but they seemed to have all gone...

The rocks are not particularly impressive, but its a nice little wander around. I think kids would really like this because there are some smaller holes in the rocks that only they would fit through. There's a recycling depot nearby so every now and again you hear glass bottles tumbling around.

This is a really great interesting walk. Unfortunatley it has become the norm for kids to bring a plastic toy when visiting & leave it amongst the rocks, making it look like a plastic junk yard. If the council could stop this from happening so everyone could enjoy the rocks in thier natural form, this would be much appreciated. :)

Hidden Gem! Was enjoyed by young and old. Amazing rock formations and so much to explore. Would recommend heading to the end of the track first and working back towards the entrance. Kids really enjoyed the tunnels right at the back of the area.

Take the road out of Takaka towards Abel Tasman NP. Look for a small sign and a road on the left, about 4-5 km east of Takaka. Labyrinth Rocks are about 1 km down this road, and are visible from the Takaka road (they are quite low in profile.) Or ask at the Takaka Information office.
