Description

The track starts with a flight of stairs, then levels out to cross a largely open face with views to the north. Hike past an old pā site (hidden by vegetation) through regenerating native bush to a large kauri tree, estimated to be over a thousand years old.

A few minutes further on, and past the site of a large kauri that fell in 2009, the track passes through a grove of young kauri (rickers) to a viewpoint that looks out across the forest.

Return the way you came or continue on to complete the full loop.
