Langsview Track Mountain Bike Trail

The track is described here from the eastern entrance on Cove Road.From the carpark, follow the orange markers along a short bush walk that comes out on a private subdivision road. Turn left and follow this up the hill – the surfaced road gives way to a rough trail that continues to the top of the ridgeline. Follow the marked route and respect private property.Once past the last house at the end of the road the track continues along the undulating ridgeline through a series of grassy clearings towards the trig station at 297 m. To access the trig follow a short track up the hill just past the kissing gate. Although not part of the this is a formed track developed by local volunteers.From the trig, there are amazing views of the countryside – north across Bream Bay, south down the Mangawhai coast and out to the offshore islands.Return the way you came, or connect with one of the other Tanekaha tracks (external site) that branch off. These other tracks lead to King Road, off Cove Road.The track continues along the ridgeline through regenerating bush with occasional views both north and south before meeting a roadway which leads past more private houses. Another of the alternative tracks that link up with the and the eastern end of the Brynderwyn Hills Walk.From here it is 7.5 km down to Cove Road along a narrow, unsealed road partly through areas of forestry.
