Wenderholm overnight carparking at Wenderholm Regional Park
Alert - warning
Pontoon closed for maintenance
We have closed the pontoon at the Wenderholm boat ramp due to damage to the stone jetty used to access the pontoon. We expect to complete repairs of the whole structure by the end of 2026. Please follow all instructions on signage and from park rangers.
Track closure
The section of Wenderholm Perimeter Path from the top of Maungatauhoro to Kokoru Bay is closed for the winter to protect cultural sites and the track surface. Estimated reopening date is 16 October 2026 but will depend on ground conditions. An alternative route is via the Puhoi Track (blue).
