Introduction
Walk a loop track in Glory Cove Scenic Reserve on Stewart Island/Rakura.Dog access
From the wharf on the Paterson inlet side of the reserve there is a one hour loop track which crosses the sandy peninsula to the southern end of Ocean Beach. Sea lions are sometimes on the beach – stay at least 20 metres away from them.
If you walk north along the beach you will find the track which takes you back to the wharf.
On Stewart Island/Rakiura, it is located on the southernmost part of the Neck; a narrow peninsula of land which protects the entrance to Paterson Inlet/Whaka a Te Wera.
In Oban you can hire a water-taxi to take you from Golden Bay wharf to Glory Cove Scenic Reserve.
