Karangahake Gorge - WALK/BIKE/BEACH DAY
Hi team we are planning on hitting this again this year, but making it even better by giving you as a family more options.
We are meeting at the Gorge at 9:30 - which would mean leaving Manurewa at 8am to live tike for a toilet stop on the way.
Morning option one - the walk: The Karangahake Rail Tunnel Walk it is about 1 hour 20 minutes long but super fun and easy - including to massive swing bridges - the giant tunnel and a super adventurous river track this is probably once of the most scenic adventurous yet easy tracks the North island has to offer
Morning option two - the ride: the ride through the tunnel and along the Karangahake Gorge bike trial -Approx 20 min each way with a 20 min adventurous rest stop at Gold old min ruins.
Lunch : We all drive to the ruins for a lunch stop ( toilets on site )
Beach adventure - for those keen to venture on we will go to Waihi beach for the afternoon - if the surf is small we will hit the surf club end for some body boarding Parking on Savage Ave - next to Brighton Reserve - if its to big and ruff we will head down to Anzac Bay for Swim and hit up some jump spots !!!.
The drive to the Gorge is about 1 and 10 min hour. Its about another 25 min drive to the beach.
What to bring:
Bikes for those who want to ride
Helmet
Togs
A change of clothes
Sunscreen
bodyboard / Surfboard for the beach
