Thread: Track walking times (Ureweras and Kawekas)

Apart from the Waikaremoana track, there's not been a lot of track maintenance done on the likes of the Waimana and Whakatane tracks for quite some while. So I'd be a bit cautious of "indicated times", someone with local knowledge would be a better bet. The last time we walked the Whakatane track, downstream, in the main it's pretty easy to follow, but between Hanamahihi and the Waikare junction, there's quite a bit that's "disappeared! Not that it matters much, if the river is ok just wander down the river bed, lovely walk in good weather! Magic piece of the country!
