Help protect our kauri trees
We have closed large sections of our parks network to prevent the spread of kauri dieback.
When you visit our parks you need to clean your footwear and equipment to avoid transferring disease from one area to another. For more information see Protect our kauri trees.
1080 pest management
During August and October 2018 we applied 1080 bait to the parkland area. Warning signs will remain in place during the caution period, until bait and carcasses have broken down. Read more about the Hunua Project: 1080 pest management.
