Kawakawa, Far North

Bay of Islands Vintage Railway

A railway route with a long history now serves as a scenic ride, restoring to Kawakawa its distinctiveness as a town where the train runs down the main street. The route travels through country side inaccessible by car, over several wooden bridges and through a tunnel.

The Bay of Islands Vintage Railway runs throughout the year. The round trip hauled by a 4-4-0 steam engine named Gabriel takes approximately 1 Hour.
