Waikino Station
The historic Waikino Station houses
a delightful café and acts as the link
between the
Goldfi elds
Railway from
Waihi and the
wonders of the
Karangahake
Gorge.
Te Aroha’s hot mineral waters are a
major attraction, with its thermal and
mineral springs
earning it a
reputation as a
‘spa town’. It’s
a great place to
relax after a day
of cycling.
Te Aroha Mineral Spas
Located between Paeroa and Waihi,
this gorge is the main link between the
Waikato and Bay
of Plenty regions.
This ‘gorge of
gold’ is packed
with beauty and
features old gold-
mining relics.

Trail Info
LOOK OUT FOR...
The Hauraki Rail Trail showcases some of the
best scenery New Zealand has to offer and is
rich in pioneering history.
HAURAKIRail Trail
2-3 Days
80km
Among this trail’s many
highlights are the stunning
Karangahake Gorge, an
historic gold-mining town, quirky
townships and luxurious mineral spas.
There are three distinct sections to the
Hauraki Rail Trail. The trail from Thames
to Paeroa and Paeroa to
Te Aroha follows a historic railway
formation that runs across lush green
farmland. These sections are fl at
and very easy riding – and the raised
platform provided by the old railway
line offers riders great views across
the Hauraki Plains and to the forested
Kaimai Mamaku Forest Park.
The third section of trail runs from
Paeroa, through the Karangahake Gorge,
to Waikino Station. The trail through the
gorge follows the Ohinemuri River and
includes a number of interesting bridges
and a long railway tunnel. On arrival at
the café at Waikino Station, riders can
either take the vintage train on to Waihi
or ride all the way to Waihi.
The Hauraki Rail Trail was created
through a partnership between the
Hauraki District Council, Matamata-
Piako District Council, Thames-
Coromandel District Council, Department
of Conservation and Nga Haerenga –
The New Zealand Cycle Trail project.

RIDING THE TRAIL
12km to Paeroa, a large rural town made ‘world famous in New Zealand’ with the Lemon & Paeroa soft drink. There is a large café next to the Paeroa i-SITE, on the left side of the cycle trail.
Paeroa to Waihi Station, 24km
From the Paeroa i-SITE, cross the road and follow the cycle trail south to a road bridge on the edge of town. Cross this bridge using the footpath and then look for the trail on the left-hand side of the road – it’s reasonably obvious. The trail will take you beside Rotokohu Rd for a few minutes before entering the Karangahake Gorge. This is a stunning gorge with bridges, forest, mountain views, a long tunnel and a fascinating history.
There is a café at Waikino Station, 200m off the main trail. If you’re intending to catch the vintage train on to Waihi, check the timetable before you head off. During the summer and in the holidays there is a daily train at 2:30pm (and yes it will take your bike too).
Alternatively, continue riding to Waihi Station, 8km past Waikino Station (this last section has a few short steep hills).
Paeroa to Te Aroha Station, 22km
From the Paeroa i-SITE on Seymour St, cross the road and follow the cycle trail south to a road bridge on the edge of town. Cross this bridge using the footpath, then look for the trail on your right – it’s on the other side of the roadside fence. You will ride along the railway formation all the way to Te Aroha. About 8km from Paeroa you will pass a lovely Devonshire Tea shop on your left.
The old Te Aroha station is two blocks from the main street, which has cafés and other shops, as well as public toilets and plenty of accommodation.
The Hauraki Rail Trail is mostly Grade 1 (Easiest), which makes it suitable for riders of all ages, abilities and fi tness levels. The trail is wide and smooth with mostly gentle gradients.
Thames to Paeroa, 34km
Starting from the Thames i-SITE on the corner of Mary and Queens Streets, take any side street out towards the coast and after a few hundred metres you will meet
the Thames Coastal Walkway, a shared path for both walkers and cyclists. Turn left and follow this to the start of the Hauraki Rail Trail. The offi cial start to the cycle trail is at the wharf, where there is a café, a takeaway shop and a car park.
From The Wharf Café, follow the signs south out of town. You will ride alongside the main highway, across farmland, under the highway and then across more farmland.
If your caffeine levels are dropping or you need a snack, about 12km from Thames you’ll see a small sign pointing to The Cheese Barn Café, which is located 200m off the trail to your left.
Another 10km down the trail you will discover the small town of Hikutaia, which has a pub and a popular café called the Convenient Cow. You have to cross the highway to get to it, so take extra care. From the Convenient Cow café its another
“The Hauraki Rail Trail
offers an outstanding cycling
experience for locals and
visitors alike. It will also
boost economic development,
tourism opportunities
and employment in the
Coromandel district.”Hauraki District Council Mayor,
John Tregidga

Thames Trail Tips
Making Thames your base for a few nights lets you get a relaxing sleep before kicking off the day at one of our many cafés or Saturday market.
A local mid-morning shuttle can take you and your bikes out to Waikino or Waihi so you can use the decline and sun to your advantage.
Explore the gorge with a walk or lunch before following the afternoon sun across the plains back to Thames.
Eat, drink, relax and enjoy while riding at your leisure, you will have all day so no need to rush. Your only worries will be where you choose to have dinner.

ALONGSIDE THE TRAIL
From lush green plains to rugged ranges and steep gorges, there’s plenty to explore alongside this diverse trail.
One side of the trail is bordered by the
Hauraki Plains, a green, scenic area,
while the Coromandel Forest Park and
the Kaimai Mamaku Forest Park sit on
the other.
The Kauaeranga Valley is full of historic
walks, including the Pinnacles, one of
New Zealand’s most popular overnight
walks. There is also the Wainora Kauri
walk, and the Catleys Track, which
crosses the Kauaeranga River.
The Karangahake Gorge is rich in
mining history and full of walkways and
old tunnels to explore. This picturesque
stretch of river was once home to one of
the busiest gold strikes in the country.
There were once three huge steam-
operated mining batteries here – built in
the 1890s to process ore.
The 2.5km Windows Walk is probably
the gorge’s most popular walk. It takes in
the ruins of the Talisman battery and a
tunnel overlooking the Waitawheta River
with ‘windows’ blasted by the miners.
As well as all of this incredible natural
scenery to explore, this trail also has its
fair share of cafés, shops and interesting
townships within close proximity.
Waihi is another town that’s
steeped in history; evidence of
its gold-mining past can be seen
everywhere. Visit the excellent Gold
Discovery Centre and take a tour
of the Martha Mine for views into
the open pit. Also walk around Lake
Gilmour or follow the historic and
art trails.
Waihi
‘World famous in New Zealand’,
Paeroa is the hometown of the
soft drink L&P (Lemon & Paeroa).
A 7m-high replica of a past L&P
bottle now graces the main street.
Paeroa
Thames exudes history and character. Built on the pioneering industries of gold mining and
kauri logging, this town has plenty of historical hotels and buildings from the era, including
fantastic museums. Activities include visiting a butterfl y garden, scenic fl ights and fi shing.
