Day 4 starts early to the most northwestern tip of New Zealand - Cape Reinga - where the souls of recently departed Maori are said to leave the mainland on their journey to the afterlife in the spiritual homeland Hawaiki.

At Kohukohu we take the small ferry to Rawene before travelling through the Waipoua Forest, an ancient Kauri forest. We stop to visit Tane Mahuta, the ‘Lord of the Forest’. At around 2000 years old and 51 m (169 feet) tall, Tane Mahuta is New Zealand’s largest living Kauri tree. We stop in Dargaville for the night.
