Tane Moana Walkway (Giant Kauri)

Walking Time: 2 hours return via the walking track

Important: Good shoes recommended, this walk may take longer for some people. No other road access is possible along the path.

Directions:  The track starts on Waitoi Road in Ngunguru. You will pass through logging forest before reaching the largest kauri tree remaining on the East Coast, Tane Moana. Measuring over 11 metres in circumference, he stands head and shoulders above the ridge line, and has a boardwalk built around him to protect his roots and base. Locals used to picnic beneath his shade on Christmas Day. It is not possible to carry on as this is private land. Please return back to Ngunguru on the same path. It is not possible to carry on as this is private land.
