Spicer Forest

Tawa, Wellington, New Zealand

Ridgeline wander through the Spicer Forest.

Intermediate

Bike and Foot

From the Ohariu Valley Road end this track starts with a steep climb straight up the hill. The rest of the track is relatively gentle, following a rolling ridgeline along a continuous clearly through the forest.

Although the Te Araroa Walkway continues up the hill towards Colonial Knob South, that section of track is unridable. Therefore, either return the same way or turn into Broken Hill and perhaps then dive off down Tawa Singletrack.

A few metres before the end of Ohariu Valley Road there is a gate on the eastern side of the road, just on the edge of the forest. If you look carefully, you'll see the Te Araroa markers - follow them up the hill.

Ends at an intersection with Broken Hill.

This track is part of the Te Araroa Walkway.
