Auckland Forests
Forest riding generally means commercial pine forestry. There is one Crown (NZ government) owned forest left - Waiuku Forest, - while all others are now privately owned. When riding in any commercial forest, be aware of the extreme danger that logging activities pose, and the potential danger from fire and high winds.

Any recreation in commercial forests can be dangerous. Logging activities and trucks on the roads are a danger to you, and YOU can be a danger to others. There are serious health and safety laws for forest operators and riders must respect them if they wish to continue accessing commercial forests.
