Got To Get Out is returning to one of our favourite hikes, overnight at the epic Pinnacles Hut in the Coromandel!We will depart Auckland (outside The Cloud, downtown Auckland) early on Saturday morning (pickups along the way possible, usually Bombay). We will start hiking around 10am, getting to the hut before dinner.
Those keen-beans in the group can dump bags and go to the summit for sunset, or wake up early for sunrise.
After a big shared cook-up on Saturday night, we will get into sleeping bags for our overnight stay in bunks (bring earplugs!).
The next morning we head back to the bus, planning to have you home by mid afternoon.
Your ticket price includes:
- transport to and from track start, Coromandel
- guiding and hosting from Got To Get Out founder Robert Bruce
- your overnight hut pass
- all gear lists and other supporting information sent ahead of time so you know exactly what to pack and how to prepare.

It is a hard day (each way). You need intermediate to good fitness. If you can hike the Tongariro Crossing, Mt Pirongia, Te Whara Track, Mt Taranaki, then you would find this EASIER but only slightly. It is a long slog uphill, some minor river crossings, and carrying your overnight gear too.
Please check with us if you aren't sure if this is suitable.
Ages 16+ please.
Bring:
Hiking boots or grippy footwear (not running shoes), suitable pack, water, food, wet-weather gear, sleeping bag are minimums for this trip.
Expect to carry around 6-8kg with all food and gear depending how light you pack!
Limited to 17 spots including driver, so secure your ticket now!
