Matukutūruru (also Te Manurewa o Tamapahore or Wiri Mountain) is a volcano in Wiri. Part of the Auckland volcanic field; it is one of the Tūpuna Maunga o Tāmaki Makaurau (ancestral mountains of Auckland).
Created by a series of eruptions around 30,000 years ago, it had a scoria cone reaching approximately 60 metres higher than the surrounding land. The lava flows covered around 18 hectares and created the 290 metre long Wiri Lava Cave.
