A Gorge With a Golden History

Karangahake Gorge and Walkway links Paeroa with Waihi. The Karangahake walkway runs from Waikino to Karangahake, following the old Paeroa-Waihi railway line past the massive stamper batteries built during the gold rush of the 1890s. The full walk takes approximately two hours each way, but there are a series of shorter walks. One of these is the loop track, which takes you through a 1086 metre tunnel and back along the river.
