Velskov Tea Gardens & Food Forest

A Warm Welcome to our Travel Trade Partners

Unique, regenerative, and deeply immersive, Velskov's New Zealand Tea Gardens & Food Forest offers an authentic eco-luxury escape in Auckland’s Waitākere Ranges.

Pioneering GastroEcology, Velskov connects human wellness to nature conservation. Guests forage for native tea plants, indulge in guided tastings, and savour a co-cooked open-fire lunch inside a scenic forest glasshouse.

In a living legacy experience, visitors name and plant their own tea garden. Ideal for mindful premium travellers, Velskov offers intimate Wednesday shared tours or bespoke private journeys with optional Māori Cultural co-hosting and city electric vehicle transfers.
