A reasonable walk of just under 10km but involving a continuous ascent of almost 500metres taking about 1:15 hours at the end of the day. The day starts with a long descent to the NW on a long ridge before heading down into the Makara Stream valley. Once down there is a choice to do an out and back to meet Ohura Road then head upstream to a delightful cabin for lunch before grunting back up the grassy slopes with whole outing taking about 4:30min. A 300km drive for 10km walk
