Waikato Tall Chimney Biv

A moderate tramp of just about 11km in around 5 hours on quite a tricky unmarked back-country track – in fact most of the track used is degraded four wheel quad bike track. If the correct road, tracks and turns are located navigation is easy. Wet feet are guaranteed, unless rock-hopping is a talent, as the Okupata Stream (with Blue Duck seen) is crossed and this can be knee deep with slippery rocks. The tramp is graded moderate as walking is not easy with many slippery sections plus exposure to lots of “cutty” grass. By 2016 the access road from the state highway was slower and potholed. The Biv also accessible via the 42 Traverse
