| While visitors to Cape Reinga typically take the pathway to the lighthouse, they are not allowed to approach the rocky point next to it and its 800-year-old pohutukawa tree. This point is sacred in Maori mythology as the place where the spirits of the dead make their way off the mainland to descend to the underworld. |
