Providing a sanctuary for birds and people alike, Pio's hike down the east coast from Pākiri to Puhoi unearths a thriving creative community who have escaped the rat race. Pio feasts with buffalo farmers, mixes it up with a raw food enthusiast and turns renegade with a band of knitting mafia.
Te Araroa: Tales from the Trails is a fresh look at Aotearoa by foot, allowing Pio Terei to connect with the people and local histories in a very real way. All the while, the unspoilt landscapes hark back to a time when Maori and Pakeha explorers first encountered this land.
