Rangiwahia Hut Track Hiking Trail

This well-graded track to the tussock tops on Whanahuia Range is a great overnight tramp for families with children and new trampers. A benched track enters the bush beside the top carpark and begins at a steady grade. The Deadmans Track junction on the right is a few metres in from the carpark. The track zig-zags above an active slip before crossing a deep ravine of the Mangahuia Stream via a picturesque arched wooden bridge. A slightly steeper grade from here, the track heads up through smaller shrub species past a pretty waterfall to reach Rangiwahia Hut.
