Entering the Forest Park at the junction with the Tui Domain Track the track passes an old concrete explosives magazine, crosses the Mountain Road and meanders through lowland forest of püriri and kohekohe.

Ascending gradually at first, the track climbs to Tui saddle above old mine tailings and abandoned mine shafts.
