Te Hītori o Te Ara
I whakatinanahia te Whenua Rāhui o Whataūpoko i te tau 2001 i te hokonatanga mai o te whenua e Te Kaunihera o Tūranganui i te tau 1992, katahi ka rumakihia ngā rākau rerekē nō whenua kē engari tino ātaahua, karakara. Kua tino kaha rawa atu te tipu.
Nā te hunga kaimahi kore utu i whakatinana taua ara i te tau 2003 mo te hunga hikoi, eke paihikara hoki. I tēnei wā, 20 ngā ara, tata ki te 12.4 km, 725m ngā pikinga, te taumata 119m.
Ka whakahaeretia e Te Karapu Paikamaunga o Tūranganui he whakataetae i te whenua rāhui i te tau, ka whakaaetia hoki ki ngā ara i ngā ngahere ki te whiwhi kāri whakaae ana.
