Great views a top. 2 hours total return for average climbers. Very steep climbing and too many Steps built to reach to the top. Lookout point is tiny track on top through wooden platform. Take care as no guard rails. Super steep climb so be prepared. Hiking stick will be helpful.

The track took us 30 minutes to get to the top. Some reviews say thatthere is but more than 1000 steps. I lost count of it while climbing. The track is all up, up and up but down, down and down when coming back. When you get to a wooden platform which curves a little bit, just where a tree has fallen down. There is a hidden track that also takes you to a lookout. Look after your kids because there is no barriers. It is worth a look. It only takes a minute to this hidden lookout. Check the track in Google map. You can return back and continue your journey to the top lookout. You will be rewarded with a spectacular view and cool strong breeze. The track is well maintained. I was really puffed out when I reached the top. Lots of stairs and Christmas fat in my body took a toll on me. But I made it. Parking can be challenging.

There are a lot of stairs!!.. really big and very steep stairs!!... And you're just walking up stair for 45 mins straight going up n up but once you get up there the view is beautiful and all those stairs are worth it.

Just to start: if you want to know how far until the end: there are 1,128 stair steps. That said, what a gorgeous hike through the bush! Plan some extra time if you're going with little ones. It took more like 3 and a half hours up and back. A nice tidy bathroom at the bottom lot with two camping spaced vans is the beginning of your journey. Ascend through bush with glimpses through the palms and ferns of the bays. You'll meet your first stairs not to far in. Tui calls should keep you going through the middle, and the sight of the top should give you the last push past the boardwalk of stairs. Stay on the trail! Steep sliding drops are all along the entire length. Enjoy the view with a few snacks before you get blown off the top! Please note: DOC has helpfully provided a safety cone to warn off climbing to the very top.

This is a absolutely stunning views at the top of Mt Manaia. A great walk through nature. Well set out track from the bottom to the top. Views over the Whangarei Harbour and out to the Pacific Ocean. Just gotta do it!!

Great hike if you are up for a challenge going up or are a fan of climbing stairs.The views are amazing when you reach the top. Recommended to go in the morning or late afternoon.🌄

It was an amazing walk, very challenging. Took me 42minutes to the top without stopping 😁✌ Definitely worth the effort if your trying to live your best life. Happy Father's Day Team 💙

Has a very big parking area. The walk up to the top is moderate to difficult as there is lots of sets of stairs, there is some flat spots that break it down a little bit but it's roughly 1000 steps some steepish in areas. But in my opinion is well worth the views on a sunny day IG📷_leon_04

Awesome.. Awesome.. Love it... This mountain really beautiful.. There are many and long stairs to get to the top, but it's worth it.. You will feel so happy once you are on the top. It's paid right away.. :-) Beautiful view from the top.. So awesome.. Also it's only 2 hours return, which mean this track good for all level hiker..
