About this place
The only walking track up to the summit of Mt Ngongotaha. It passes through native forest with views of one of the largest rātā trees in the Bay of Plenty.
The route
The first part of the walk follows an easy grade through unlogged native bush, which features a large rātā tree (40 m tall with a 1.8 m girth) with a viewing platform. It continues on the Mt Ngongotaha Nature Loop Track . When you reach the Jubilee Track the walk becomes moderately steep until near the summit. Once Mountain Rd is reached it is a short walk to the summit.
