We started the day walk at Cannons Creek Lake Reserve on an overcast Sunday morning. Passing the Maara Roa forest restoration project we climbed to Takapu Road, then past a power substation towards Cannons Head. With it being so pleasant we decided to go on to Belmont Trig. We headed back towards Cannons Head. We found a beautiful sheltered spot where we had our lunch. Then pass Round Knob and on to an old airstrip and ammunition bunkers from WWII. Then back to the car.
