Four Sisters walking track closed

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

A popular Northland walking track has closed after test results found kauri dieback at the stand of the kauri trees known as the Four Sisters.

The Department of Conservation and Te Roroa have closed the track until further notice due to two soil samples testing positive for the disease.

The short track brings walkers near to the trees named the 'Four Sisters', which are all in close proximity of each other.

Te Roroa General Manager Snow Tane said most visitors to the trees were well behaved, but a small number stepped off the boardwalk and risked spreading the disease. Read more here.
