Thames Essentials

Thames serves as the historic gateway to the Coromandel Peninsula, shaped by the 19th-century gold rush and timber industry. This collection highlights the town's industrial heritage at the School of Mines and Goldmine Experience, alongside its natural significance in the Kauaeranga Valley. Visitors can explore the rare Square Kauri, hike to the high-altitude Pinnacles Hut, or visit the traditional landing site of the Tainui canoe, offering a blend of colonial history and Māori ancestral heritage.
