The Kauri Grove is a spectacular stand of kauri trees soaring above the surrounding forest, with the walkway starting 1km further along the road past the falls. These kauri are of special significance to Hauraki Coromandel, being the largest, easily accessible grove of mature kauri in the region, and they are truly magnificent. The track is very well formed with footbridges and boardwalks, which take you close to the trees. An excellent walk for nature lovers. Please be sure to use the wash stations to prevent contamination of these ancient natural taonga.
Time: 30 mins each way
Directions: 8km up the 309 Road (from the Coromandel Town end) a walking track takes you to the most accessible and mature kauri stand on the Peninsula. The grove contains a ‘siamese’ kauri which forks just above the ground.
Located not far from the Kauri grove is the Waiau Falls, which can be seen from the road and is a short 5 min walk.
