Cape Egmont Lighthouse and Mt Taranaki

Turn off Highway 45 onto Cape Road, half a km south of Pungarehu and travel 5 Kmsdown Cape Road and visit Cape Egmont Lighthouse



The lighthouse was erected in sections during 1881 and it has been shining its light since.

Continuing another 150 mtrs to the end of Cape Road, you turn right and with appropriate vehicle you slowly take the track down to a river outlet flowing to the Tasman Sea. River is sourced from Mt Taranaki. The track is approx. 300 mtrs.

Lovely spot to stay for a few days. You need to be self-contained. Please check if this location is still OK for Freedom Camping
