Mount Hobson from Pere Street
Auckland · Out & Back
This walk comes from licensed public walk data and is being progressively confirmed against the authorities. Signs on the day always win. The rule-setter’s own wording: “The Tūpuna Maunga Authority's rule for Ōhinerau is "Under control ON leash", and Auckland Council's Mount Hobson record says the same. The Authority asks walkers not to disturb the midden or enter the historic pits beside the summit track: these are important archaeological features”. Evidence: a hand-checked correction against the authority. How we check dog rules.
Good to know
