A section of the Motukauri track on Mauao will be temporarily closed next week, following completion of water reservoir maintenance. 

The closure will take place from 8am-4pm, Monday, 15 December to Wednesday, 17 December. These dates are subject to change due to weather conditions. 

If you’re climbing to Te Tihi o Mauao (the summit of Mauao), please use the Waikorire or Oruahine track. Te Ara Tūtanga (the base track) will remain open throughout. For track locations please visit www.tauranga.govt.nz/mauao 

The Motukauri track closure is to ensure public and contractor safety during the pack-down of equipment following water reservoir maintenance work on the maunga (mountain). During this time, scaffolding and site fencing around the Mauao water reservoir will be disassembled.
