Starting from behind the old Coromandel Hospital on Main St, this track goes into the hills in a former goldmining area with a few remnants of mining still visible. You can make a longer walk by continuing onto the main range, as Success Track terminates at the midpoint of Kaipawa Trig Track.
If continuing either north or south on Kaipawa Trig Track, it’s best to return the same way and avoid walking on the busy roads where Kaipawa Trig Track ends.
The south half of Kaipawa Trig Track is also a Grade 3 mountain bike track from Whangapoua Lookout and continuing down Success Track.
Additional segments one way: 1 hr from top of Success Track south to Whangapoua Lookout; 1½ hrs from top of Success Track north to Kennedy Bay Rd near Tokatea Lookout.
