Kauri dieback: More tracks in Waitākere Ranges to reop

It is a “significant milestone” in the reopening of the Te Ara Tahura/Hillary Trail, Auckland Council said.
It will mean people are able to hike from Karamatura Valley in Huia through to Anawhata, near Piha.
Auckland mayor Phil Goff said he was pleased to see the tracks reopen.
“Aucklanders and visitors love the Waitākere Ranges and West Auckland walking tracks,” Goff said.

“The tracks were closed to protect our iconic native kauri trees from dieback disease.”
A Natural Environment Targeted Rate had allowed $311 million worth of investment over a 10-year period to upgrade tracks, protect kauri and enable the ranges to be enjoyed by hikers again.
