A perfect family adventure and lovely Cafe and Food at Skyline Rotorua. The facility has several activities for the entire family. There is a lolly store, wine yard, Cafe and Function Center. Mount Ngongotaha also have a Maori significance in their culture.

Nothing to see at the summit except for the TV tower, surrounding it is just bush. Walk up from the car park near Aorangi Peak Restaurant takes 40-60mins. It still has some nice views on the way up. No car access. But can walk on the road up.

I walked from the skyline gondola nature pathways, through the woods for ages, before coming to the road, which then was a 40min hike up to the top, unfortunately there is no view point at the top at all abd there is no cafe like the description states. The road has been closed off to cars for some time as nature has begun to reclaim the road again, its peaceful and eery up here as you walk, wondering if you will see a soul again. Bring lots of water as the hike is a steady uphill, in the heat its harder. Really pretty views on the way up though. The top just provides an electric tower.

Great bush walk from Paradise Valley Road. Not an easy one but very nice. The road runs up the side of Mount Ngongotaha to the top entrance to the tracks. Then the tracks go down to the car park area at the bottom on Paradise Valley Road. If you start at the bottom, there are some choices to take look tracks without going to the top.

Beautiful in the dry. There are no scenic views at the top of the mountain but the vegetation is worth exploring. It's very difficult to get lost. The trails are very well marked.
