Mauao track closures
UPDATE 17/11, 4.24pm:
During scheduled maintenance on Mauao today our team found a large boulder/rock that needs to be remove for safety reasons.
The Mauao base track and Oruahine track will remain closed tonight instead of opening at 4pm, as planned, to allow work to continue this evening.
The 4X4 and Waikorire tracks to the summit will remain open.
We are aiming to get all tracks open again by around 6.30am tomorrow morning. Thank you for your patience.

Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
