From Resolution Bay the track follows an old bridle path ascending over
a ridge and leads down into Endeavour Inlet. The gentle inclining track
passes through stands of kamahi and then beech forest as it passes over
a saddle.
Then it's a fairly easy walk down past Tawa Bay, through The Pines (holiday
settlement with homes, baches, jetties etc) and on towards the areas
lodges.
The track then gradually descends through sections of manuka, five finger
and mahoe are followed by a magnificent stand of original native bush
and crystal clear streams. Slowly snatches of the nearby sea and foreshore
come into view.
On the eastern side and head of Endeavour Inlet a range of accommodation options are provided by Blue Water Lodge, Cnoc na Lear, Endeavour Resort & Fishing Lodge, Furneaux Lodge, Miners Camp, No Road Inn, The Woolshed and Tawa Cove Lodge. See the individual operator listings below for further information.
Day walkers normally conclude their walk at the Furneaux Lodge Jetty. Here you can also take a side trip through a magnificent stand of native rain forest to a waterfall.
