Ohoka is one of the closest country areas to Christchurch, only 15 minutes drive from Christchurch and the International Airport. Surrounded by farmland and lifestyle blocks with views across to the Southern Alps and foothills.

Every Friday morning the Ohoka Farmers Market is open for all your fresh bread, produce, eggs, baked goods and more in the Ohoka Domain. Take a leisurely walk along the Ohoka Stream and discover the history of the once bustling village based on flax mill or discover one of the beautiful gardens in the area. Make an appointment and visit The Barn on Giles which has an eclectic assortment of new and vintage goods.
