Protecting the Tūpuna Maunga: Fire Safety Closures Return for 2025

The Team from Auckland Council

Aucklanders, a friendly reminder that all 14 Tūpuna Maunga will be closed in the evenings during Guy Fawkes to help prevent fireworks-related fires. 🔥🚫
Recent fires have caused serious damage to these sacred sites — including Te Pane o Mataoho / Māngere Mountain last year. Even one spark can harm the cultural and natural beauty of our maunga.
Let’s protect these special places together.
