Hiking the Needle - Rarotonga April 2018
Back in April this year Gabby (my wife) and I went to Rarotonga, Cook Islands for ours friends Georgia and Jame's wedding. While there we decided to take on the Cross Island Walk up to The Needle. It was hot, sticky, hard sweaty work but the view and the adventure was worth it. Here is our adventure, enjoy it and maybe one day you can go do the walk yourselves.
Passing through impressive natural scenery, the three- to four-hour hike from the north to south coasts via the 413m Te Rua Manga (Needle) is Rarotonga's most popular walk.

Visit Rarotonga in the Cook Islands
A short visit to Rarotonga to trek through the island, Dive in the reefs and eat Raro Fried Chicken.
I got a little lost on the Island Trek.... There is a very popular route that goes from North to South.... I had injured my ankles the month before and decided not to do the whole trek but would start from the finish and meet the others near the end.... I somehow ended up far off the main trekking route and found my own adventure. At least I made it back safe and sound!!
