Trail description

A 2.6 km loop with about 170 m of climbing on the Mercer Bay Loop Track along the cliffs above Te Unuhanga-a-Rangitoto / Mercer Bay, between Piha and Karekare on Auckland's west coast. The bay is ringed by cliffs over 60 m high, the tallest in the Auckland Region. Its beach disappears entirely at high tide, and the caves of Te Ana Areare lie at its northern end.
