This walk leads from the visitor centre through native plantings to the one-third scale replica kauri driving dam. The model dam is like those used in the days of kauri logging.
The path crosses the dam and on to the old water race. From there it loops back to the visitor centre and car park.
You can do a nature treasure hunt on this track – get the question sheet from the visitor centre.
The Kauaeranga Valley is east of Thames on the Coromandel Peninsula.
