Trip Grading
Moderate
A moderate to fit loop tramp of 5 to 6 hours depending on fitness level or as the weather allows. The tramp starts on the tourist track towards Tama Lakes from the Chateau then heads SSE following the Wairere Stream. At some point the stream line is crossed and the route then loops back towards Whakapapa via the Pinnacles then Whakapapa Ridge. This walk can be attempted in wintertime but is better as a summer outing. Short cut and extensions both possible.
