Sentinel Rock Lookout
We start out the day by parking at the end of Hot Springs Road in Katikati. We then proceed along the Tuahu track, which is a well-formed track thanks to DOC who have done some recent upgrading work resulting from the Kauri dieback threat. After around 25 minutes we reach a section of board walk around a huge Kauri.
After taking that in, we follow a well signed track to our left to Sentinel Rock Lookout. This section is steeper and more rugged. After toiling away, we will finally reach the Lookout to Sentinel Rock. The Lookout affords a wide panorama with the Sentinel Rock clearly in view.
