Two walks over in Hawkes Bay. Kaweka J being short (10km) but very steep with 800+ m of ascent over the 5km ascent to the trig with vicious drop-offs, so good weather strongly advised. The walk to the Flats is not flat but is at lower altitude and does have several stream crossings, one river crossing plus a very steep challenging ascent on the way in.
