Geocache Description:

Just another simple cache to encourage taking a walk around Waro. While walking around Waro, I was trying to remember the Maori words for colours & liked how the words roll together Waro Walkaraka.... LOL Gumboots may be advisable in the wetter months; the track is a little bit squishy in spots after all the rain we've had. ;)

A great place to enjoy the scenery, learn some local history, have a picnic, take a walk, run the dog, go for a swim, find a geocache, or just relax... Lake Waro & Waro Limestone Scenic Reserve are on the Northern outskirts of Hikurangi, approximately 10 minutes north of Whangarei. For lakeside parking, picnic areas & toilets, take the King St. exit from Hwy 1 & the first road on the left – go slowly as it is easy to miss! There is a track which goes right around both the lake & reserve, an easy 2.2km in total, well worth the walk to see the various limestone formations and read the informative signs ( and find other caches! ) Or for the less energetic, a short loop around either the lake or the scenic reserve should each only take 15-20 minutes.
