Mt Maunganui is the iconic landmark of the Tauranga region – standing sentry over sprawling white sand, turquoise surf breaks and happy holiday makers. The Māori name – Mauao – means ‘caught in the light of the day.’ If you take on the challenge to slog up its slopes, you’ll be in the perfect spot to snap a spectacular selfie. The gentle 3.4km meander around the base takes around 45 minutes and is suitable for wheelchairs and strollers. For a bit more of a challenge, try the brisk 20-minute walk to the 232m summit via the steeper tracks. At the top, you will be greeted with spectacular 360 views along the beautiful coastline. On a clear day you’ll see Whakaari White Island simmering away on the horizon and to the north, the intriguing shapes of Rangiwaea and Matakana Islands.
