On the southern edge of Blenheim, lies the Wither Hills Farm Park. This working farm is owned by the Marlborough District Council, who in addition to running it as an agricultural farm, have provided numerous public access walkways on the lower slopes of the Wither Hills. Popular with walkers and runners alike, the network of paths and tracks through the Farm Park are frequented by many Blenheim locals, year-round.

The Gentle Annie Walkway leads from one of the Farm Park car parks, to the Rotary Lookout which provides a stunning scenic view of the township of Blenheim, and the lower Wairau Valley.
