Waitākere Ranges tracks reopen after four-year closure

Melanie Earley Reporter from Western Leader

Kia ora neighbours, three popular tracks in the Waitākere Ranges will be reopening this weekend after a nearly four-year closure due to kauri dieback disease.

On Friday, the Gibbons, Muir and Pararaha Valley tracks will be officially reopened to the public after being closed in May 2018.

The tracks, along with a raft of others, were closed in 2018 until mitigation work could be carried out to bring them all up to a safe standard for the kauri trees.

Poll: Are Kiwis allergic to “exuberance”? 🥝

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

In The Post’s opinion piece on the developments set to open across Aotearoa in 2026, John Coop suggests that, as a nation, we’re “allergic to exuberance.”

We want to know: Are we really allergic to showing our excitement?

Is it time to lean into a more optimistic view of the place we call home? As big projects take shape and new opportunities emerge, perhaps it’s worth asking whether a little more confidence (and enthusiasm!) could do us some good.
