Tarawera River walk Southern section 5km
I walked this trail months ago, but I didn't post about it because I was missing some photos of key points during the hike. Then I had my calf muscle hiking injury on the 1st of April and I couldn't get back to doing this trail until I had recuperated and was back in the area with time to walk it. Anyway, now I've walked it again (3 times in one day in fact - see my recent post about my Hiiker app rant to find out why) so I can finally post about it. Something to keep in mind is that there were 6 loose dogs during my first 2 circuits (including an aggressive one that ran for me) and a motocross rider stupidly careening along the narrow walking trail, I had to step off and into the trees to avoid him, during my third circuit. Just as with the Northern section that I walked toward the end of last year, I started at the car park near Firmin Lodge off Waterhouse Street in Kawerau. Head back out to Waterhouse Street and turn right onto the bridge crossing the river. Immediate
