Shekinah Farm Backpackers

Set in the beautiful countryside of Pukekawa we provide comfortable lodgings for backpackers, cyclists, walkers, and campers in this relaxing farm-stay.   Warm shower.  separate kitchenette.

Just an hour's drive (or one day's cycle ride) from Auckland city, New Zealand, SHEKINAH is an ideal place to stop on your way south to Raglan, the Coromandel, Waitomo, Rotorua or Taupo or on your way north to Auckland or Northland.

If you are walking the Te Araroa trail, we are 15km from Mercer. Pick up and delivery from/to Mercer can be arranged. Phone to book.

We are one of the closest backpackers to Auckland airport outside of Auckland city.

Friendly dogs, and cats. Rest and enjoy our magnificent view overlooking the Waikato River and on a clear day see the Coromandel Peninsula.

As well as providing a welcome retreat from the city, this is also a peaceful and convenient place to spend your first or last nights in New Zealand.

Within a short distance of Auckland and Auckland airport, you can both avoid the complications of navigating Auckland streets and having to pay extortionate parking fees as well as being able to fully relax in a beautiful setting.
