Quick Description: Kohukohunui Trig, at 687 metres above sea level, is the highest point in the Auckland region.
Location: North Island, New Zealand
Long Description:
Unfortunatley there are no views from this trig but a beautiful walk through the native bush with views on the way. This is a challenging track defined by markers, steep in places, muddy at the tops. It will take 6 – 8 hours return depending which track you choose to take.A round metal plate located under the wooden trig has no identification numbers on it.

When I visited the trig the S.A.S. Army were in training and had covered the trig with cammo cloth to hide their radios and to keep them waterproof.
