About this place
Explore Mohi Bush Scenic Reserve and see if you can spot the tiny rifleman, New Zealand's smallest bird. This is one of the few places it is found outside of forest parks in Hawke's Bay.
The route
Mohi Bush Track is made up of two loop tracks that join in the middle of the scenic reserve. The loop tracks are reasonably flat and easy to walk. The short loop cuts through the middle of the reserve, while the long loop leads to the far end of the reserve. Both tracks pass a wealth of seedlings and ferns growing underneath podocarps such as miro and matai. This reserve was one of the first in New Zealand to be treated with bait stations for possum control, and it shows - take your time and enjoy the results.
