Organiser: Vic Roberts
3 day trip in the Aorangi Range where you get to witness lots of bush and bag a bunch of huts. Max number of people for this trip is 6 since huts have only 6 bunks. It's not a loop so we'll need two cars for this. Following this trip except the opposite way: https://www.getoutdoorsnz.kiwi/tramping-in-nz/outdoor-skills-videos/3693-haurangi-bush-track
Day 1: Meet up at Hunter carpark at 8am. Drive out of Wellington to the Putangirua Pinnacles campsite, drop a car off at Cape Palliser. Will want to be ready to walk by around 10am. Walk to Washpool hut for the first day.
Day 2: Walk from Washpool hut to Kawakawa hut. This involves getting over a hill to Pararaki hut and then going to Kawakawa hut.
Day 3: Walk out of the ranges by following the Mangatoetoe Stream to Cape Palliser. Then drive back to Putangirua Pinnacles to pick up the other car.
Bring your own lunch, dinner and snacks because it's fun to be creative and cook your own stuff. There will be river crossings throughout the three days so expect wet boots. Will determine trip price after trip for fuel.
