Mount Maunganui Base Track

Reviewed By kpiddy - Brisbane, Australia

Hiking the Mount Maunganui Base track is a wonderful way to discover this beautiful part of the east coast of the north island, the track is very popular with locals for their fitness as are the other tracks which go up to the summit of the mount. The suggested time to complete the 2.5 km track is fifty minutes but can be done in a shorter time. Access to the track is at Mount Maunganui Beach, near the surf club and caravan park, paid parking is available on the street.

Mount Maunganui Summit Track

Reviewed By sussan59 - Auckland Central, New Zealand

Make sure you've got good shoes on and comfortable clothing, this is a great workout, especially for the baby boomer generation. The track was very dry the day we climbed the mount, ergo it was quite slippery, and we had to watch our step going up. The views once you reach the summit are stunning. The sense of achievement feels pretty good too! Going down, we chose the steep steps which were also a challenge, and our thighs felt it the following day. Overall a great experience!

Great Track, Karts reasonably quick for this circuit, awesome family fun, they were extremely busy so recommend booking to secure your race, our start time was delayed and they gave us the option of cancelling with full refund or extending our race time for free, we chose later, glad we did, had a great time even though my 24 year old son beat me by seconds, will have to have a rematch now!
