Auckland to Cape Reinga, New Zealand

The walk heads north along the beach for about 20 minutes, until you see signs. You then follow the track that leads quite steeply up onto the first knoll. It is best to do the beach walk at low tide and we were lucky enough to be there at the right time. Looking at the unusual rocks along the beach, it is easy to imagine the volcanic forces at work in this area many years ago.   Select the photo below to see more of this area.
