Five Mile Loop Track is an easy one hour walk that takes you through a mix of native bush & beech forest
The Five Mile Loop Track spans 3.9 kilometers and begins at Catchpool Valley in Wainuiomata. It’s considered an easy walk, typically taking around 1 hour to complete and arrive at both the Orongorongo Valley Track or Middle Ridge Track for the return leg. The return adds another 30 minutes to total around 1 hour and 30 minutes beginning and ending near the car park. The track initially follows Grace’s stream through a beech forest, but also passes through sections of native bush. It’s a popular track, but you still get many moments of solitude. Dogs must be leashed as there is kiwi in the area.
