No.1 Line Lookout Track

Location
Head towards Pohangina from Ashhurst and turn right onto Pohangina Valley East Road. Follow this past Awahou School and then turn right onto No.1 Line Road and continue along this gravel road to the car park at the end.
Description
The track heads into forest immediately behind the car park and consists of a series of steepish climbs interspersed with a few level sections to get your breath back. Not far from the beginning is a huge rimu and a bit further on a large rata. As the track climbs higher up the ridge, lovely views out to the west are frequent. Just before the main track finishes there is a wonderful lookout giving views up to the main range and back out towards the coast.
