About the trail

The Greytown to Woodside Trail is a family-friendly pathway that connects the quaint Wairarapa township of Greytown to the historic Woodside Railway Station.

The wide limestone pathway weaves through an avenue of mature oak trees with views of the Tararua Ranges and Gladstone Hills. The walking trail is also suitable for bikes, prams and wheelchairs and provides easy access to a cycleway that runs from Udy Street in Greytown to the Waiohine River.

The Greytown end of the trail starts on Cotter Street. The Woodside end of the trail starts from the Woodside Railway Station.

There are regular train services from Wellington to Woodside. Timetables are available from the Metlink website.
