The Pinnacles

Depart Coromandel Town and wind down the Pohutukawa fringed coastline of the Thames Coast as we head towards the picturesque Kauaeranga Valley the heart of Coromandel Forest Park.

Our passionate local guides will get you safely to the start of your hike, sharing the stories of this remarkable area on the way so you can be left to enjoy the forest and walk at your own pace. Following the footsteps of the timber fellers from the 1800’s, this full day hike takes you up the old packhorse trails, used to transport supplies when this area was the scene of the significant Kauri logging.

Relics of this time such as abandoned logs, giant Kauri stumps and tramlines are evident throughout the walk, bringing the history to life. The eroded volcanic cone of The Pinnacles has weathered into a stunning and spectacular peak and provides a 360° view of the entire Peninsula and many of the features of the central North Island.

Return back up the Thames Coast at the end of the day to be rewarded by the spectacular views of the Northern Coromandel as you reach the hills above Coromandel Town.
