Beach Car park and picnic area - Waiuku Forest
At the mouth of the mighty Waikato River lies the largely unknown – and often-forgotten – Waiuku Forest, all cloaked by towering pine trees with hard-packed, low impact sand-based trails underfoot. Our courses here boast extensive and breathtaking views over the Tasman Sea, Port Waikato and the mouth of the mighty Waikato River.

Our event base is the Beach Car park and picnic area - Waiuku Forest. If using Google Maps, Ghezzie Road, Otaua will take you to the nearest mappable point, from there you can follow event signage to the Event Base. Mobile reception gets very patchy as you get out nearer the forest, so it would be advisable to have your maps loaded before you leave Waiuku township.
We encourage all participants to carpool out the event base whenever possible. This reduces the amount of parking required, reduces our carbon footprint and the impact on the location grounds. We do not have a large parking area out at Waiuku Forest (only available parking is literally each side of the forest road that leads to the event base) so PLEASE car pool as much as possible to save a long walk to event base.
