Whanganui bay is an awesome area on the South West end of Lake Taupo.  It is a little bay surrounded by cliffs and has an awesome setting.  It is a really nice area for climbing and if you are not so keen on climbing there are lots of nice area to explore and relax around in.  Of course all of our climbing trips are accompanied by a suitable level of drinking, general madness and heaps of fun.

Skill level

The weekend is aimed at everyone from those who don’t want to climb and just enjoy the sun.  To those who want to give it a try on some easy grades.  To those who want to go hardcore all weekend.  There is lots of stuff a Whangani bay.

The plan

We are planning on leaving Thursday night and driving up to stay somewhere.  We will be looking at spending a couple of days at Whanganui bay and 1 day at Mangatapopo.  So there is the chance for those who don’t want to climb at Mangatapopo to do a Tongario day trip.  We will be returning on Sunday night.  I will post a more specific plan later

If you are keen, send me an email or come along to our meeting tomorrow to talk about it and sign up - Craig
