Percy Scenic Reserve

Highly recommended visiting for a beautiful walk and relaxing time. The weta cave and waterfall were my highlights. My kids loved it too

Maybe the most beautiful little reserve in the Hutt Valley. Great place for picnics and the trek up to the waterfall seems almost prehistoric in places...a real hidden gem just 5 minutes from Lower Hutt CBD.

Absolutely gorgeous nature, well cared for tracks, a gorgeous waterfall that you can put your feet in to cleanse your soul and spirit, loved this, there is also multiple tracks to go on

Percy Scenic Reserve is an absolute must-visit if you’re in the Wellington region. From the moment you step into the reserve, you’re surrounded by beautiful native bush, towering trees, and the peaceful sounds of birds and flowing water. It feels like stepping into a little slice of untouched New Zealand paradise.nThe walking tracks are easy and well maintained, making it perfect for families, couples, or even a solo explorer looking for some quiet time in nature. The highlight for me was the stunning waterfall – it’s not massive, but it’s incredibly picturesque and makes for great photos.nI also loved the suspension bridge and the well-kept gardens near the entrance. Everything is clean, tidy, and clearly cared for. It’s an ideal spot for a relaxed picnic or just to unwind and escape the city without having to travel far.nIf you appreciate nature, native plants, and a peaceful atmosphere, Percy Scenic Reserve is definitely worth a visit. I’ll absolutely be back next time I’m in New Zealand!

A sweet escape for hectic week with waterfalls as the reward. Easy track for kids, only take 15minutes walk to the waterfall. There was a picnic area not far from the entrance, nearby we can found a 15m long weta cave before the duck pond. Just follow the path at the end we arrived at the waterfalls. In the other side near the entrance, there were water wheels.
