Drive the 2 hour trip Friday, set up tents or for those who would prefer not to camp, there are cabins available. Organise own evening meal or use campground facilities. An opportunity to explore the area either by car or on bike. Things to see in the area: Heading towards Dargaville -Tokatoka Peak, a moderate hike to the top and what a view! 20 minutes to Pahe for another seaside village and wharf and one of the largest Moreton Bay Fig trees you will ever see. 5 minutes to the Kauri bushman reserve to view the local Kauri trees. Intention is to spend at least half a day at the Matakohe Kauri Museum. Tinopai 22 km away, so bikers could do the return trip (Max elevation 157m). Return Sunday via SH16 and stop at Parakai Springs for a hot swim.
