★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Be aware that there is currently a big sign at the gate that this walk is currently closed to everyone 'Due to the extreme fire hazard'. Disappointed as there was no mention of this on the Google listing - a good reminder to only rely on the official MPI.govt.nz website in future. It says:
"Due to the fire risk index reaching ‘extreme’ Waiuku Forest will be closed from 6pm Friday 4 February 2022. The status will be reviewed on Thursday 10 February."
Would have been nice/proactive of MPI to update the official Waiuku Forest google listing too.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ A pleasant drive 10 km from Waiuku township to the Waiuku Forest Gate. The gravel road from there to the Waikato River and on to the river mouth opening up to the Tasman Sea has some potholes with a 4 to 8 km Drive to the river or ocean respectively. Several well maintained bush walking tracks, river and beach views. Dogs and horses allowed.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ An hour's drive outside of Auckland, this awesome pine Forest is Great for dog owners and families who want a bit of a hike amongst fresh pine tree and sea breeze. Adviseable to park outside the white entrance gate (if you come late in the afternoon) as there is a closing time for security reasons. visitors must also be out before then. It takes about 40 mins one way to head to the secluded beach. There are side tracks off the main one I'm guessing used by horse riders and bikers? Great day trip if your from out of town.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful forest. Good for walking, trail running and biking (on metal road).
I went for a walk with my dog at 4.30-5.30pm and by the time I got back to the car it was quite dark so either stick to the road and take a torch or go earlier. Gate closes at 6pm.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ There are different feeling at different times and seasons, and I still don't feel that l lose interest. This place is definitely worth recommending. It is very suitable for a half - day trip. People who live in Auckland may wish to experiment with a good relaxing environment.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Enjoy this stunning walking trail amidst the majestic Waikato. An hour's drive from Auckland CBD. The entire walk is nice and easy, with not too much elevation and the Pine trees ? give enough shade.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Great for walking, mountain biking or horse riding. Very popular for horse riding and off-leash dog walking in fact. If you're walking to the beach, it's ~6-7km return, so might want to consider bringing along water. Use AllTrails app map as there are many intersections with no directions, only road names. This is more a track with beach views so if you're looking to spend a day at the beach, maybe look elsewhere?
