Maungauika, also called North Head Historic Reserve, is a grassy headland at Takarunga Road in Devonport, on Auckland's North Shore. Its draw is its history: former military fortifications sit on the headland, with tunnels and guns to explore, and the harbour views are a major part of the visit.
The reserve gives Devonport a green, historic space above the harbour, and it is a short trip from the town's streets and cafés. Our view is that it is a striking place for a walk with history and views in Devonport.
