Te Puia Track and camping at Hot Pools in the bush | Mangatutu and Mangatainoka Hot Springs NZ

An exciting and challenging walk that will take you longer than the three hours posted as you stop to admire the views and take respite in the many swimming holes along the way. The reward at the end of the hike is a long soak in the hot pools at the Mangatainoka free campsite on the Mohaka river. ** TIMELINE ** 00:00 Intro 00:30 Mangatutu Camp site and Hot Springs 00:50 Start of Hike 07:44 Arrive at Hut 10:00 Arrive at campsite and set up camp 11:12 Hot Pools 12:05 - Dinner 12:45 The Next Day 12:58 Fresh Water Spring 15:55 Beach and swim ** OTHER HIKES and WALKS ** Tongariro Crossing:    • Tongariro Alpine Crossing | BEST HIKE New ...   Mount Te Aroha:    • Climbing Mount Te Aroha to the Summit, New...   Pinnacles Day Hike:    • Видео   Karangahake Windows Walk:    • Windows Walk From Dickey's Flat | Day Two ...   Hakaramata Summit:    • Hakarimata Summit Walk - Can we make it?   ** LOCATION LINKS ** Mangatutu Hot Springs at start of track: https://goo.gl/maps/FwCXMgwcV1WBbwUp8 Mangatainoka Campsite: https://goo.gl/maps/eKXuwqC2xHAUY2SH8 ** FOLLOW US ** Facebook:   / nomadlifekiwi​   Instagram:   / nomadlifeki.  .
