Hira Forest Access Update: Waitarake (formerly Sharlands), Maitai Face, Koata Park (formerly Codgers) and Fringed Hill is available to the public for biking, walking and running under the Heads of Agreement with NCC.

Be aware that there may be fallen trees blocking some secondary forest tracks. There may also be leaning or unstable trees near forest roads or tracks that we are unaware of. Look out for overhead hazards and do not enter the forest if the wind conditions are strong.
