Katore Wash Trail 2 - 2.5 hours (Orange track)
This trail starts off similar to the Tokorangi Lookout trail but brings you quickly back into the forest instead of following the ridgeline. The map shows where it diverts from the Tokorangi Lookout (Yellow) track.
This trail will take you down to the valley floor following ‘The Wash’ and then Nursery Road to link back to the main entry.
