Further north, the Cheviot Hills Reserve is also a great place to stretch your legs and see some incredibly old and large specimen trees.
Duration of walk: 1 hour
How to get there: Drive on State Highway 1 to Cheviot, then turn down the signposted Gore Bay Road. Distance from Christchurch 100km.
This is a small interesting reserve with a circuit walking track. The track starts and ends by the Gore Bay batches and is well signposted. You are sure to spot friendly fantails along the way.
"The Cathedrals" are eroded siltstone pillars, which are a typical example of what has come to be known as "badlands" landscape.
Facilities available: Toilets, cold water, rubbish bins, camping, fishing permitted, tennis court, dairy and service station within 5kms.
