Manganui Bluff Track

This was a beautiful coastal hike on the north-west coast. A lot of elevation though, not really scrambling over rocks like in some places, but a steady 25 degree incline seemingly the entire way to the top. After a tiring climb from sea level to 380m/1240ft (thats almost 2 Calabogie Peaks!) we were rewarded at the top with endless views to the north and south. The ocean looks like from a plane up there!
When we got to the bottom it was low tide so we grabbed a dozen green-lipped mussels of the rocks, back at camp we had some rice so we whipped up a trailer park paella; add some cheap Kiwi sauvignon blanc and we were glamping!
