Ruapane Lookout at the summit of Mount Pirongia in the Waikato, a grueling climb to 723 meters in the pouring rain the track is not maintained and is full of huge tree roots and mud most of the climb up, as we neared the summit there was literally a river flowing down the track, return to the carpark was around 4 hours but worth the effort. #mountpirongia #ruapanelookout #newzealand
