Taranaki Summit: Epic East Ridge Scramble Adventure 🏔️🌄

Embark on a summer rock scrambling adventure along the East Ridge of Mt. Taranaki! This easily recognizable route offers excellent rock footing and stunning vistas. Start from Tahurangi Lodge, traverse to Organ Pipes Valley, and ascend to the East Ridge at 2000m. Follow the ridge with increasing exposure, tackling the crux at 2200m. Reach Sharks Tooth at 2510m and descend to the 'chimney' for a thrilling back climb into the Crater. Your descent follows the easier North Ridge route.
