Lovely walk up to the lockout and then down to Anzac cove for a gentle dip in the morning, followed by another surf swim in the afternoon.

A small section of the hauraki rail trail - Waihi to waikino via train and then to the karangahake gorge and 1km tunnel. 14km return. All the girls did super well. I left them and did the last section to Waihi which was a bit more hilly with rough and smooth trails but stunning scenery.
