Kiri Forest is situated near Ōpunake in the Taranaki region and presents a rare investment opportunity in a location where quality forests are seldom offered. This young Pinus radiata forest has been fully established in 2022 and has been carefully planned to maximise land use and long-term value.



The forest covers a net stocked area of approximately 325.5 hectares, with Mānuka planted within setback areas to create a well-planned and efficiently laid-out asset. A total of 324.2 hectares is registered in the Emissions Trading Scheme under averaging accounting, with the sale including all NZUs accrued up to settlement.



The land features very easy terrain, resulting in a low environmental risk profile and enabling high-volume, ground-based harvesting across the entire forest at maturity.



Access is excellent via Kiri Road and Kaweora Road, both sealed public roads that provide direct links to key regional transport routes. The forest is located approximately 54 kilometres from Port Taranaki and 67 kilometres from the Taranaki Pine Sawmill, ensuring efficient and economical cartage distances.



This forest is one of three very similar properties currently being marketed in the Taranaki/Whanganui, being Turakina Forest and Makahu Forest both are also young, Pinus radiata and registered in the ETS.
