Hemi Matenga - Mangaone Sunday 3 April

Over the hills from Waikanae to Reikorangi. First a car shuttle was organised so we had enough cars at Mangaone South Road to ferry us back to Tui Crescent. Then up the Parata Track and north along the Te Au Track, which we soon left behind to follow the ridge line north, with a side trip to knock off Field. Then further west along the ridge line to eventually drop down to the Mangaone Walkway and out to the cars.
