Moss Creek Track

From the car park, go past the Webb Creek junction following the river.

The track crosses the river. There is no longer a suspension bridge as this has been removed. Assess the river carefully before crossing. It will not be possible to cross when the water levels are high. There is no alternative route.

After the river crossing, the track then climbs steeply to the Moss Creek Campsite.

The Kauaeranga Valley is east of Thames on the Coromandel Peninsula.

Stay safe when crossing rivers and streams

If you plan to cross unbridged rivers or side streams, know how to cross safely and be prepared for if you cannot cross.

Do not cross if the river or stream is flooded, you cannot find safe entry and exit points or are unsure it’s safe. Turn back or wait for the river to drop. If in doubt, stay out.

Thefts from vehicles

Isolated carparks are prone to theft. Don't leave any valuables in your vehicle. A bag storage facility is available at the Kauaeranga Visitor Centre.
