The Tiritiri Track at Shakespear Regional Park runs up the east side of the park from eastern end of Te Haruhi Bay. It provides nice views back to the beach as you climb up the hill, then mostly follows the clifftop with views to Tiritiri Matangi Island, the best-established bird sanctuary in the Auckland region. The track also provides access to Pink Beach down a staircase. This is a popular rock fishing spot directly opposite Tiritiri Matangi.
There is also a brief forest section before you reach the ridge and connect with the Heritage Track. These forest sections are important as they provide an easy connection for native birds as they move to establish themselves beyond Tiritiri Matangi.
