The Coromandel Peninsula is famous for one hiking track that nearly everybody who visits Coromandel does: The Pinnacles Track. This hike is not at all intense, it takes only 1,5hours (although guidebooks say 3hours..) up to the hut. From the hut to the pinnacles it takes approximately 1hour – and then you enjoy awesome views over the Coromandel Peninsula. We spend the night at this DOC hut and – after sleeping in – hiked up to the Pinnacles on the next morning(ehmm, at noon.. Actually this hike isn’t dangerous, as long as you don’t step off the cliffs *g* Just have a look – a false step off the cliffs would be really fatal!

The red something standing on one of this pinnacle is ME!
