Geocache Description:

Kohi Point walkway winds its way around the steep terrain that forms the headlands between Ohope Beach and Whakatane. A 2-hour walk from Ohope the track first finds magnificent vistas of Ohope Beach and then discovers Otarawairere Bay. You can see on the aerial photograph the track climbing up and over the headlands and then along the ridge parallel to the Whakatane River. Average fitness is required as there are some extended inclines.

The track has access to the site of Tois Pa or Kapu Te Rangi. A Historical reserve steeped in Maori Tradition. The walk forms part of a 7-hour loop walk called The Nga Tapuwai O Toi walkway or the Footsteps of Toi. This track, in it entirety, takes in Whakatane, the Mokorua Bird Walk and the Ohope Scenic Reserve.

See the Kohi Point Vista page showing the view from various points along the walk.

Rosemary Tully of Whakatane Bird Rescue has prepared some interesting notes on the bird life you may encounter on the walk.
