Red Rocks 4WD Track runs from the Te Kopahou Reserve entrance at the west end of Owhiro Bay, on Wellington's south coast. The track starts at the old quarry, which the council took over in 2000 and redeveloped in 2008. Past the quarry the road is unformed but mostly flat, and it leads to Red Rocks and the seal haul-out at Sinclair Head. Four-wheel-drive vehicles are allowed every day except Sunday, when the gate is closed to vehicles and only walkers and mountain bikers can use it. The parking area is large and sits in native bush. Toilets and changing rooms are at the Te Kopahou Visitor Centre, in the old quarry building, which has displays on the quarry and south coast history. Dogs must be kept on a leash. Views reach out to Cook Strait, and there is a bronze shark sculpture called Frenzy near the visitor centre.
