The Karamu track was a first for Mark and I. It was different than our usual hikes. The walk starts with a short hike (about 1km) in the bush and the rest of the walk is in farmer fields. We followed the white posts and orange markers along the main ridge to Old Mountain Rd and went a bit beyond that point.
There are great views of the Hakarimata Range in the north, Karioi and the coast to the west, Pirongia to the south and Hamilton city to the east.
