Who we are
Welcome to The Coastal Trail
The Coastal Trail is a project managed and lead by Matakana Coast Trail Trust, a group of highly skilled, committed volunteers that are passionate about making this project a reality.
Our vision is to create a world class recreation and adventure trail that sustainably connects our coastal communities in the presence of the ocean Te Moananui-ā-Toi (the Hauraki Gulf). From Puhoi in the south, via the Matakana Coast to Mangawhai in the north
A trail that offers walking, cycling, mountain biking and horse riding paths for residents, visitors and tourists.
Trail network
Puhoi to Mangawhai
A significant trail network that links Pūhoi to Mangawhai, sustainably connecting the many coastal communities along the way.
We have engaged with private landowners, Auckland Council, Auckland Transport, NZTA, Department of Conservation, the NZ Walking Access Commission and Rodney Local Board to coordinate trail development.
