DOC Walking Tracks NZ

Easiest/Easy Intermediate Advanced Expert Not graded

Community & long-distance routes OSM

Te Araroa, the Hillary Trail, Te Ara Hura, Hollyford and other routes DOC doesn't map — from OpenStreetMap (ODbL), mapped by volunteers. No official grade or walking time.

Topo connecting tracks LINZ

The fine foot tracks from the LINZ Topo50 map (CC BY 4.0) — the connectors that join the marked routes. Topographic centrelines, not graded DOC tracks; closed where marked.

Council park tracks & closures AKL

open CLOSED. Council land, not DOC — 1,540 tracks, 2,428 km across Auckland, Christchurch, Nelson, Queenstown Lakes and Tasman, including minor and unnamed ones. Only councils that publish a real open/closed status are included: most (Wellington, Dunedin, Rotorua and others) publish tracks with no status at all, and we will not draw a track we cannot vouch for. The Waitākeres are an outlier: 62% closed under kauri dieback controls, against 12% nationally. Status is each council's own, retrieved on a date shown in the popup, not live — check before you go.

Kauri boot-cleaning stations AKL

Scrub and spray going in and coming out — a minute at the post is what keeps these tracks open, and managed kauri forest is well worth walking. Shown only where data is available (full Auckland Council coverage plus a few landmark stations like Tāne Mahuta); DOC and other councils run many more nationwide that aren't published as open data, so a blank area is NOT "none here" — clean your boots at every kauri track.

DOC tracks with their official difficulty and published times, where DOC publishes them — grey means DOC gives no grade for that track, not that it is easy. Tap a track for details and "Follow this track". Tracks we don't chart still exist — absence here is never an all-clear to bush-bash.
