GIS supports a future for Te Waro Block
Herenga ā Nuku has been working with the ahuwhenua owners of Te Waro A Block to support access to a section of land that many previously thought was landlocked.
The landowners, the people of Tuahuru Marae and Kaiuku Marae, and the wider community have come together to restore the area, bringing back native birds and fish.

Cyclists and walkers get here by boat access to southern Whangatoetoe Bay, then climb to the existing ridgeline forestry road, which extends to a stunning headland lookout point to the south.
