Getting around Raglan

The shopping and cafe area of Raglan is compact, so you can easily walk around it.  Further afield you’ll need your own transport or to use the taxi, although there is a limited bus service as covered below.  The Raglan map below shows the Raglan town area around Bow Street where the Information Centre, hotel, and most of the motels, backpackers, shops and cafes are located.
