Kauri Point Historic Reserve

Location

5 km north of Katikati.
Go to end of Kauri Point Road, turn right and drive down to the car park. The walkway starts here.

Description

The walkway takes you along the harbour’s edge and around the point into paddocks where it is easy to see evidence of old pa fortifications and trenches. There are magnificent Pohutukawa trees which line the shore, an old wooden jetty that extends 200 meters out into the harbour and several pa fortifications.

At the northern end of the point drop down to Ongare Point (10 minutes) or continue back to the car park via Chelmsford Street.
