5.0/5
This short walk describes the work of the gumdiggers of past years.
There are many holes still remaining that were excavated for kauri gum. Visitors can appreciate the hardship suffered by the gumdiggers slogging away in what was - and still is in some weather - a swampy wetland. There are several informative plaques that describe the features of an approximately 10 minute loop walk. Recommended for anyone interested in the history of Northland.
