    Hiking

    Good news first: once you reach the end of the trail, the views will blow your mind, and you will be very proud of what you've achieved. Bad news: even though the trail is short in distance, hiking up Makuku Ridge Trail is a really tough challenge with steep inclines and spots where you have to pull yourself up along ropes or roots, so this hike should only be attended when you are in good shape and well-prepared.

    Hiking

    Best to approach this from bottom to top.
    The hand holds are mostly good, there are trees to hold onto and roots though best to check they are secure and ensure your feet are firmly set.
    Take very grippy shoes.
    The route is not way marked though there are a few red ribbons lower down but these soon run out. The route is fairly well trodden and obvious enough however at the very top it is very over grown.
    Only proceed up if you know you could retreat if needed. Not for a novice.
