C: About Walking (8)

Dogs 

Unfortunately dogs are not permitted on any 2022 Walking Weekend walks.  In past years we have had a farm Doggie Walk and may look to reinstate it in the future.
Dogs are not permitted on the Clifftop Walk or any of the Tanekaha Tracks at any time, both areas are managed by DOC and are Kiwi  Protection Zones.

Dog friendly: The estuary and surf beach are dog friendly with some areas requiring ‘on lead’ restrictions. Dogs can walk on the Goldschmidt Track and on lead through the Mangawhai Park.  Where can I walk my Dog in Kaipara?

Our beautiful beaches and estuary are the home to many shore birds, some endangered. Here in Mangawhai we love to protect them as best we can.

How long do I need to allow for the walks?

Indicative walk times are included in the walk summaries. All walk times include traveling time from the Domain and returning to the Domain. Please ensure you are under your walk banner at the Registration Centre 15 minutes before the registration time showing on your ticket. This gives us time to run through the mandatory safety checks.

Lunch Packs

There are many places to buy lunch in Mangawhai – at the Heads (Wood St) and the Village. However you may need to buy the day before to ensure you arrive at the Domain in time for your walk start. We are not offering  packaged lunches in 2021.

What happens if it is wet?

Our intention is to run the weekend rain or shine – unless it is unsafe to do so. Please come equipped ready to walk in rain. If we need to cancel we will advise you by email and place a notice on the website and on our facebook page.

What happens if the walk I want to book is full?

Walks have limited numbers and will automatically ‘sell out’ when maximum number is reached. You can email us and ask to be put on a wait list. We will let you know if a place becomes available on your preferred walk.
