A distinctive mountain formation - been on my to do list to figure out how to hike it!

Motutere/Castle Rock is an advanced track situated 8km south-east of Coromandel Town and is set within the remnants of a former volcano. This spectacular track offers unforgettable views of both sides of the peninsula, giving adventurers of all ages something to aspire to. With its rocky terrain and roughly 2-hour return journey, this adventurous track promises those with a true sense of exploration an extraordinary experience! Castle Rock also boasts of a Grade 2 mountain bike track and various walking routes, as well as rock climbing opportunities. So why not explore Aotearoa's picturesque beauty and make sure to check out Motutere/ Castle Rock on your next visit to Coromandel Town.
