3176 Wairere Falls
Sunday 30th March 2025
This is where the club went on its very first trip back in May 1950. It's on the western side of the Kaimais overlooking Matamata. The track follows a stream and then there is a steep climb to the top of the escarpment with views of the falls from beneath and peering over them from a platform at the top. It's a short walk further on to the junction of the North-South Track. If there is time we may go a little further along the track to find the hidden waterfall also.
Since 2005, volunteers have worked to restore the health of the forest and have witnessed increased numbers of rifleman in the area. With the support of DOC, they have
also reintroduced endangered species such as king fern and dactylanthus to the area.
