Cycle Trail day 3

On the trail at Karangahake Gorge

1 km - long tunnel

Old pumphouse at Waihi

Not toys, trucks etc....

 

...down in the open-cast Martha gold mine

 

The final stage of the cycle trail was from Paeroa to Waihi.  This passes through the Karangahake Gorge and past remains of old gold mining days.  At Waihi there is still a huge open cast mine beside the town.  Waihi was interesting to stroll around, galleries and cafes.
