Polhill Reserve - Red Rocks Sunday 29 December

A great day trip – about 26 km if you average the GPS’s carried by several people. About six hours walking time, with breaks extra, the round trip took about 8 hours. Varied terrain, different environments and great views. This was an enjoyable trip on a sunny day. Definitely not a trip to do in a Wellington southerly!
