Te Toiokawharu, Mountain summit in Waitākere Ranges, New Zealand.

Te Toiokawharu is a 474-metre peak in the central Waitākere Ranges, the highest point of the range and of mainland Auckland. Its northern slopes feed Georges Stream, which flows into Lower Huia Dam, while the southern slopes feed the Karamatura Stream; both reach the Manukau Harbour near Huia. The hill and the upper Huia and Karamatura valleys are formed of Miocene-era breccia.

Te Toiokawharu was only recognised as the highest point of the Waitākere Ranges in the early 1940s, when city waterworks engineer A. D. Mead located and measured it; its isolation had kept it unsurveyed. The name was chosen in 1941 by Wiremu Paora and Rangitutahi of Ngāti Whātua, descendants of Kāwharu, whom the New Zealand Geographical Board consulted. The board did not then know the hill's traditional name, Puketūrua.

The name Te Toiokawharu, "The Peak of Kawharu", was chosen in 1941 by Wiremu Paora and Rangitutahi of Ngāti Whātua, descendants of the Waikato Tainui warrior Kāwharu, who attacked Waitākere Ranges settlements in the late 17th century. The hill's earlier name, Ngā Puketūrua ("hills of burrows"), was not known to the Geographical Board at the time.

The Twin Peaks Track is the main walking route to the summit, starting from Huia Dam Road and taking around 5 to 6 hours for the full journey. The trail is accessible year-round, though conditions can be muddy and slippery, especially after rain.

Te Toiokawharu was not surveyed until the early 1940s, when city waterworks engineer A. D. Mead located and measured it; its isolation and poor fit for a trig station had kept it off the maps. The summit was also the site of a hollow tree where hunters waited to snare kererū.
