SATURDAY April 14

You will need to park your car before the gate to the lodge and then it’s a half kilometre walk to the lodge. To get to the Aongatete swimming pools, follow a bulldozed track for about 15 minutes then  you head off  along a cut track of mostly second growth bush to the river. This is a trip for the sure footed and those prepared to get a bit wet as you traverse up the riverbed (about 300 meters) to some attractive cascades and pools, a favourite swimming place for youngsters in summer.

Duration: 1.5 hours (including 1/2 hour swim time)

Track Grading: 1

Start Time: 11am
