Hingarae Forest represents a rare, investment-grade production forestry opportunity, comprising more than 1,046 hectares of freehold land, with approximately 958 hectares of mixed-age tree crop located on the western side of Lake Taupō, within the Central North Island Wood Supply Region – New Zealand’s largest and most significant forestry region.

The forest has been professionally managed, with thinning, pruning, and forest health overseen by an experienced local forest management company. The forest is within economic cart distance of multiple long-term operating pulp and sawmills, and Port of Tauranga, New Zealand’s largest export port.

Hingarae is registered in the Emissions Trading Scheme (ETS) under ‘stock change’, with no NZU’s sold, providing flexibility for investors seeking to optimise estate-level carbon strategies. With its scale, established crop, and assured ETS position, Hingarae Forest will appeal to both production forestry investors and carbon-focused buyers seeking an immediate and growing NZU profile.
