Ōhope Scenic Reserve

The entranceway to Ōhope Scenic Reserve features a traditional carved entranceway. The reserve itself is home to a large number of kiwi re-introduced by the Whakatāne Kiwi Project, a partnership between Bay of Plenty Regional Council, Department of Conservation, Whakatāne Kiwi Trust and Whakatāne District Council in conjunction with Te Runanga o Ngāti Awa. 

Located at the corner of Pohutukawa Avenue and Ōhope Road.
