                   Track has seen some maintenance of recent(2022)and is much improved.Still a little rough in places but over all a good tramp. About 1km in there is a boardwalk built to protect some large Kauri. Route climbs steadily from 367m to 517m. Shelter is tucked in bush across Lewis/McCormick Creeks

Found the Mangakino Pack Track a very hard slog with lots of steep crumbling sections with sizeable drop off's. We did not complete the track but spoke to a group that had and it took them 4+ hours to do this section
