Te Raukawa Moana Lookout is a scenic walking track located at 500 Queens Drive in Houghton Bay, Wellington, holding a 4.8 Google rating.
Coastal walking tracks along Wellington’s rugged southern bays offer dramatic vantages across Cook Strait, where clear days reveal the peaks of the South Island. A good coastal trail balances accessible footpaths with exposed ridgeline terrain, making sturdy footwear and windproof layers essential given the notorious Cook Strait southerlies. Regulars know that the best visits often coincide with calm evenings for sweeping sunset panoramas, or wilder weather if you want to watch the swell roll into the coastline.
It stands as a rewarding stop for walkers taking in the panoramic sea views above Houghton Bay.
