Description
Demanding climb to the summit of Valley View Hill via a rough 4x4 track.
The lookout provides great views over Lake Kohangatera and the surrounding hills to the north and east.
The climb is slightly less difficult from the southern end, so usually done from that direction. Either return the same way, or continue down the other side of the hill to rejoin Lake Kohangatera 0.8km from where it meets the Kohangatera Lookout boardwalk.
Getting there
About 0.6km from Kohangatera's entry gate on Baring Head, take the steep track up the hill to the right.

1.75km
Conditions
Double track
