Kauaeranga

From Leigh I went through Auckland yet again and then to Thames on the Coromandel Peninsula. The main thing to do out here is to hike the Kauaeranga Valley up to the Pinnacles, which I did. This area was completely denuded 100 years ago, so the flora and fauna are not that great. The main attractions are some volcanic formations, a very tall waterfall, and some good views. You can see most of the Peninsula from the peak. Plus, it is just a pretty good walk. There is just not as much hiking available in Northland, unless you are carrying a tent.
