Waikino - Karangahake Bach and Accommodation Visit the stunning Karangahake Gorge! Our Bach is located in Waikino only a few minutes walk across the swing bridge to the Hauraki Rail Trail, historic gold mining sites and miniature train. There are glow worms and bush walks on the property. We are nestled above the iconic Waikino Hotel - Bar & Kitchen, so after your day exploring the area you can grab a drink, a meal and relax! Waikino is located half way between Paeroa and Waihi, close enough to easily pop into town to explore the antique shops and art galleries or head down to the beach for some time in the sun. The Bach itself has four double rooms and a set of bunks in the entrance hall and there is an additional three double rooms and a bunk room in two separate buildings available for larger groups. Please note in your booking query if you require the outside rooms or would like to book the whole property. There is a bathroom with shower and toilet inside the Bach and a additional toilet and shower located on the external wall of the property. Please note: the Bach is over 130 years old (it used to be a Miner's boarding house), it has been renovated internally but it is still an old structure with the associated quirks and is very much an old school family bach not a new building.
