The Pamphlet Collection of Sir Robert Stout: Volume 78

The Pouaka1 Range

The Pouaka1 Range.

One of the side shows of Mount Egmont is the Pouakai Range, over which the route to the summit formerly went. A drive of about twelve miles from New Plymouth by way of the Junction and Mangorei Roads, lands one at the foot of the range, which attains a height of about 3500 feet. A negotiable foot track exists over the range to the Stony River swamp, upon the opposite side of which is Holly Flat, an old camping ground, from which Bell's Falls and the mountain summit may be reached. If the summit is the objective the other routes are to be preferred, but the Range trip is a delightful outing in fine weather.
