Navigation for Afternoons

The Tararua SK Traverse

The S-K is a North-South Traverse of the Tararua Mountain Range. S for Schormann, the original track beginning the adventure. This has now been replaced by Putara but the name stuck and tradition has retained the S.

K for Kaitoke, where successful attempts end.
