Rainbow Valley Community PO Box 108 Takaka 7142 New Zealand
From Motueka township, State Highway 60 to Takaka via the Takaka Hill - 1 ½ hours. There are many great sights to see along the way, so please take your time and enjoy the journey. Rainbow Community and Backpackers is 20mins from Takaka township, 11kms along Long Plain Rd & McCallum Rd, up beyond the Anatoki Salmon Farm. The last part of your journey is alongside the Anatoki River, 5kms beyond Anatoki Salmon Farm. The road is a gravel road, very scenic and winding towards our valley. We are at the end of the road, so you cannot get lost! The last 5km of road is one lane and gravel, so we ask that you please drive at no more than 30km per hour. Once within the Rainbow property, reduce speed further to 10km per hour please – livestock and children live here. Enjoy the drive! – and thank you for your consideration.
