Great Barrier Island activities
|
Enjoy a bush walk
Native bush covers the majority of Great Barrier Island and there are
plenty of bush tracks to walk. Take a short walk on level ground,
venture a little further and experience the Kaitoki Hot Springs, or
hike to the summit of Mount Hobson two thousand feet above sea level.
From Mt Hobson most of Great Barrier island can be seen and there is a
breath taking view west across the Hauraki Gulf to Mainland New
Zealand, north to the out lying island groups, and south-east to the
Coromandel Peninsula, Mercury Islands, and Cuvier Island.
