Piha Gorge Loop Stream Bashing
Piha Gorge is a hidden treasure of Waitakere Ranges. It is located at Piha Stream near Piha Valley Track. Magnificent narrow gorge views make a pleasant summer tramping through it. We are lucky to have this kind of wilderness near Auckland city.
Piha Gorge 這是一個非常美的峽谷,位於奧克蘭西區Waitakere山脈Piha附近,從奧克蘭市中心只要開車約一小時便可到達.雖然離市區這麼近,當你走入這個峽谷卻有進入荒野的感覺.這峽谷是溯溪者的天堂.溯這條峽谷需要用到一些攀岩技巧,非常刺激有趣,每年的夏天必定吸引許多登山者到此尋幽訪勝.我們星期五的登山隊老夥伴每年必定要來此溯溪一次,挑戰他們的年齡極限.今天我們再度和星期五的兩位老夥伴來此溯溪,當80歲老Kiwi 完成了這挑戰的步道時,我們興奮齊聲喝采.Eric許願希望他80歲時能做同樣的事.
