Bream Head Scenic Reserve lies at the tip of the Whangarei Heads Peninsula a spectaclular remnant of 20 mill year old volcanic activity.
The Whangarei Heads is an area of outstanding beauty, majestic hills rising dramatically from a deep water harbour, a harbour that has attracted people to the area from the earliest times in New Zealand History. Remnants of ancient Volcanoes form Mt Manaia, Mt Aubrey and the Bream Head Range, which today dominate the landscape and provide a wide range of stunning walks and hikes.
Bream Head Scenic Reserve, situated at the entrance at Whangarei Harbour contains unique archaeological, historical and landscape features and not only has the largest Broadleaf and Pohutukawa forest in Northland but is also home to the North Island Brown Kiwi and there is an abundance of many other native birds.
