Crater Rim Walk - Martha Mine

Hauraki Walks

The 4km walk begins at the Cornish Pumphouse and rises gently to the edge of the open pit for your first overwhelming peek into the vast chasm of the Martha mine. The wide gravel path continues west on an easy grade around to the highest point on the north wall where the view is simply breathtaking.

Interpretative signs provide insights into the Martha Mine on the loop back to the Pumphouse.
