Very steep walk with a lot of stairs but the views are fantastic. About 40 minutes up and 25 down for a group of fairly fit 20-somethings. The viewing area isn't huge but offers views on all sides.

Booked a b&b near the near, kapea. 3 mins drive from this track. It's just after the Mt mania club building. It's got a lot of steeps going upwards so might not be the best for elderly or little ones. It took me about 40mins. It's great for a lot of runners though who want a good leg workout. But the view up there is v worth it! Esp on the good day. I went during the summer so if you want to avoid it being hot or too crowded go about 6pm ish you can take your time and avoid bumping into people taking photos up there!

Awesome bush track takes you to the top. Well looked after steps and wooden walkways. Approx 1.5hrs return if you are reasonably fit and don't have kids, and that's assuming 10mins relaxing at the top 😀 The view is all encompassing!

I came from Henderson last week sunday to this amazing place. Honestly Such a great work out to the top so worth it and will do it again no doubt

C. R.

Such an intense walk up with so many flights of stairs and I recall it took over 2 hours up but the view at the top was amazing and so surreal, not a hike for entry level. You actually have the rock which has a look out over the whole city however if you go around the side there's a hidden path but I learnt this is a bit more dangerous and not recommended to the public by the DOC #thisisfaroq

Great walk,Have to walk about a thousand stairs for summit... worth a visit

p. &. i. A.

1000 or so steps up through pristine forest to a magnificent view of Whangarei and surrounds. Well worth the effort every time.

A. Y.

View is stunning !! Lots of stairs but totally worth it

S. B.

Definately worth the climb of over 1,000 steps to the lookout. But need medium to high level of fitness. Suggest walking poles for those not quite so fit for the steps. Disappointing theres no seats for rest stops as the walk is about an hour.

B. C.

Stunning scenery but a challenging walk

S. M.

Heck of a hike up, but the view was 10/10

F. S.

Great walk through native bush to an amazing lookout 👍 It was really windy but the walk itself was mostly sheltered from both the sun and wind. We're not very fit, and it's a lot of stairs! It took us 1.5 hours return with lots of breaks to catch our breath.

Awesome place! Beautiful at the top!

T. A.

Perfect short trail with beautiful view

R. H.

Great views from the top if you can make it up all the steps. Well worth the effort!

T. W. M.

Not for the faint hearted! Is quite the challenge but the view at the top is worth all the hard work and sweat.

A. V.

Stairs can be a struggle but lookout has amazing scenery.

J.

Great place to view Whangarei heads from top! Windy at the top lookout point and stunning view. It takes around an hour to the top with some stairway. Generally not a challenging track and worth for the effort!

А. Д.

Place with nice view and good track to here

L. L. M.

Many steps (like 1000+ steps) to climb but the view on the top was amazing during a clear day, worth the climb. Could be windy on the top.

N.

Absolutely stunning views 🤗 Get amazing photos up there.

A.

Really good hike up to the top. Catch the sunrise early in the morning. Good meditation spot. You should definitely check it out.

N. E.

Every person should climb to the top to see the view... Spectacular

This place is very windy. Risky. So be careful

The hearty experience that I experienced in person is not a cool word! Ha ha! This old-fashioned welcome gift is really amazing!

(Translated) Nice to walk up from the river (if not there is parking). Lots of vegetation and a nice view of the city once up. (Original) Lindo para subir caminando desde el río (sino hay estacionamiento). Mucha vegetación y linda vista de la ciudad una vez arriba.

(Translated) Very long climb (over 1000 stairs), so not for the faint of heart and lungs. The view from the summit is nice, but you can partly see a large industrial area. - Whether it's worth the effort, everyone has to ask himself. (Original) Sehr langer Anstieg (über 1000 Treppen), also nichts für schwache Nerven und Lungen. Der Ausblick vom Gipfel ist schön, jedoch blickt man teilweise auf ein großes Industriegebiet. - Ob sich die Mühe lohnt, muss sich Jeder selbst fragen.
