Ananui Falls Track

Location

This track is located on Woodland
Road off SH 2 (10 minutes north of Katikati).

Description

The track follows alongside the Waitengaue Stream before crossing the Wairoa Stream. The track to Waitengaue clearing and Ananui Falls is to the right and travels up the valley. There is an all weather alternative track bypassing the crossing if the stream is impassable.

The main track crosses the river on to the Waite ngaue Tramway bed on the other side. After 10 minutes it crosses the river again, then follows the river bank before leaving it to follow a branch tramline up a stream tributary. The track then climbs over a low saddle, crosses the Waitengaue stream, then rejoins with the Tramline. It follows the tramline upstream, crossing twice to a junction where a track leads to Ananui Falls. This track climbs to the top of the falls. Return along the same route.
