Having spent a fair bit of time in the nth island, I would reccommend Whanganui Bay, it has some great climbs in the low 20's. Kawakawa Bay is also pretty good, walk in about 1.5hours from Kinloch. If you get a chance, Te Ananui is definetly worth the visit; although a small area, has some good routes in an awesome setting, and access is a bit of fun (bit of rock hopping at low tide, then swim/wade through cave to access beach) |
