Waitākere Ranges tracks reopen after four-year closure
Kia ora neighbours, three popular tracks in the Waitākere Ranges will be reopening this weekend after a nearly four-year closure due to kauri dieback disease.
On Friday, the Gibbons, Muir and Pararaha Valley tracks will be officially reopened to the public after being closed in May 2018.
The tracks, along with a raft of others, were closed in 2018 until mitigation work could be carried out to bring them all up to a safe standard for the kauri trees.
