Hidden Haven Traditional Cache

Even on the very edge of Porirua's industrial area, a haven for birds and people awaits you! The trek to Rangituhi/Colonial Knob takes you through some of the last remaining native forest near Porirua. While the rimu and rata was logged, mature kohekohe and tawa remain, surrounding you here in Porirua Scenic Reserve. Look out for one of the last big trees to find the cache and watch you don’t get your feet too wet!

This cache was placed by the Department of Conservation as part of Conservation Week.
