A gravel road winding through forest, with native bush lining much of the way. It's a peaceful, scenic run well away from the sealed highways, and easygoing rather than anything technical.

Rotoehu Road is more about taking in the surroundings at a relaxed pace than tackling a challenge. The bush is the main draw, so it suits an unhurried backcountry drive where you can stop and have a look around.

Handy for linking up a wider explore of the area, or just enjoying the forest at your own speed.
