Starting Point - Paekakariki Station
Pretty flowers - pretty noxious weed (convolvulus)
Looking back down on Paekakariki
Formerly private farmland, this is now owned by Waka Kotahi (Land Transport NZ)
Ongaonga - our native stinging nettle. We managed to avoid getting stung.
A section of the Kohekohe Loop Track gave us access to the Escarpment Track
Skinks and geckos are being monitored at the old quarry site
Lunchtime at the top of the Escarpment Track 215m
