A surreal place with alot of history .... I felt that perhaps the mounds & larges "holes" in the ground should have been explained by via of a information board, just so visitors can envisage the actual layout of Pah site

Important historical site. Everyone needs to visit this place.
Great place. Filled with history. A must see
They're putting in some improvements and facilities now, but it's already a fascinating visit
Wow what a tranquil and serene place with so much bloody history and a turning point in history between the Maori & British. The natural beauty is deeply calming. The secluded short forest walk to see the tallest Totura Tree was a highlight of this visit..
Amazing place to visit, to understand how the Maori used concepts if trench warfare to defend themselves against the bunch of the British.
I was blown away with my visit with my family today.I would recommend that you watch on utube "Ruapekapeka" before you visit so you have an understanding of what the conditions would have been like.The view is to die for. I will definitely return. Toilets could do with an upgrade.Grounds and pathways awesome.
I visited this place during my Northland trip. This place would be of great interest to anyone who likes history and is specifically interested in history of Maoris and Britishers in NZ in 1840s. This is one the battle places of Northern wars. I would suggest to go through the website ruapekapeka.co.nz and also read the links suggested by them. This place is one of the dots that connects to the Treaty of Waitangi grounds and the Flagstaff in Russell. It actually makes the understanding so much better. There are information boards everywhere when describe the happenings here. The dug up holes of those years still exist. Would highly recommend visiting this place. Cheers
