What to expect
Franklin, New Zealand packs a striking mix of tidal inlets, farmed headlands, and bush-clad hills just south of Auckland. Walk the cliffs and quiet coves of Tapapakanga Coastal Walk, loop through pasture and pohutukawa at Duder Regional Park, or head west for the windswept beaches of Awhitu Regional Park. Inland, tracks like Massey Cossey Loop and the Wairoa Dam Lookout add steeper ground and wide views.
