Description

This is a shorter option and involves returning to Pureora Village via Link Road. It is suitable for all ages and another family friendly option. Cycle the first 3 km of the Timber Trail then take the side track to the Caterpillar Crawler Tractor. The tractor was used to recover fencing material from totara logs during the 1930s and 40s. Continue out to Link Road before turning left and following the road back to the start. This is also a lovely walk, taking around 1.5 hours to complete. Source: Department Of Conservation.
