Coromandel hunting

Located in the Coromandel region

The Coromandel Peninsula offers eight hunting blocks on public conservation land.

The Coromandel Forest Park covers approximately 80,000 ha.

Pigs are the most popular and abundant game animal and can be found in nearly every block open for hunting. Goats are present in moderate numbers but have been eradicated in some of the more sensitive areas including the Moehau Kiwi Sanctuary, Otama and Whenuakite blocks.

State Highway 25 encircles the Coromandel Forest Park and offers multiple access points to hunting areas. State Highway 26 between Kopu and Paeroa also offers access to hunting areas.

Climate

The Coromandel Forest Park has some of New Zealand's best weather although conditions can change quickly. Given hunting opportunities are available from sea level to 800 m hunters should be prepared for any given conditions.
