More’s Scenic Reserve bush walks - Howells Hill Feel on top of the world at this beautiful reserve that offers excellent views over the coast and the surrounding land, as well as great short walks. The reserve is located on Howells Hill overlooking the township of Riverton. The spectacular views over Southland and Foveaux Strait towards Stewart Island are complemented by the beautiful, gentle bush walks that feature abundant birdlife. These walks include: - short uphill 20 minute return Hilltop Lookout Track (short uphill walk on a gravel track) - easy 20 minute return Kings Track that follows a bush route used by early settlers, - 45 minute return Mores Lookout Track that goes through native forest to a tree-top lookout platform, - more difficult 2 hour return Mores Coastal Loop Track that emerges from coastal forest and follows marker posts along beaches and rocky outcrops on the southern coastline. The track is best walked in an anti-clockwise direction from the car park, returning via Kings Track. It is maintained to tramping track standard and may be muddy in places with some steep sections. There is plenty of parking space in the carpark and public toilets.

The best walk ever. Mixture of native NZ bush, grassy hill and view down to the coastline. Make sure to visit the lookout on the way back.

Several short walks - take in a view of Stewart Island from the top or continue over to back beach and visit hanging rock.

Terrific views of the south coast, to Stewart Island and other nearby islands. The windswept tree tops are awesome. Its a nice easy walk to the top of the hill or you can walk downhill and either do a loopwalk or head right around the coast for an afternoon adventure.
