Summary
Auckland Day Walks brochure
These day walks offer an escape from city life to forests and undeveloped places on public conservation land in the Auckland region.
They range from 30 minute easy shortwalks to full day tramping tracks suitable for more experienced trampers. Walking times are one way unless stated otherwise. Walking shoes or light boots are recommended for short walks and walking tracks in dry conditions. Boots should be worn for tramping tracks and on all tracks in wet conditions.
The walks cross both public and private land. All are looked after by the Department of Conservation (DOC), with the exception of the Te Araroa (the Long Pathway) tracks from the Dome and at Mt Tamahunga. The walks across private land are open to the public thanks to the goodwill of landowners. Please respect their property, keep to the tracks and don’t disturb farm animals. Some tracks are closed during lambing season.
