Getting there
Old Kaimai Road

About the walk
3 hour 30 minutes round trip, 9 km
This track includes a walk along a section of Old Kaimai
Road and can be walked in either direction.
Starting from the car park at the Tuakopae
Stream Bridge, the track crosses the stream before reaching
a junction. A short side track leads down to the base of a
waterfall and large swimming hole. The main track continues
to join up with the western branch of the Henderson Tramline.
When the tramline ends, the track follows haul lines to the
summit. Follow the North South Track north from the summit
until reaching the junction with the northern branch of the
Henderson Tramline.
Follow this tramline east then join a
track through the bush to the park boundary. Walk along
the edge of cleared land beside a fence, then cross two large
streams before reaching Old Kaimai Road. Follow the road
west, back to the start.
