Karangahake Gorge Historic Walkway Shared Use Trail

This walkway features historic railway remains in a stunning natural gorge setting, including two steel truss bridges and a 1 km rail tunnel, and provide access to the relics of historic gold mining. The walkway follows the railway line through the gorge and then opens out alongside the Ohinemuri River, passing through the huge Victoria Battery complex and terminating at the Waikino Station where a cafe and train rides can be investigated. A shorter loop section can be walked, that includes both the bridges and the 1100 m railway tunnel at Karangahake.
