HIKE Mt Maroon | HARD Day | Te Araroa Training | Queensland Hikes

Welcome back to Summit Hiking in South East Queensland, Australia. Today, you’ll find me Solo Hiking to achieve Mt Marlo’s 966m summit in Mt Barney National Park.

This is a challenging Grade 4 hike which offers a mix of a sharply ascending rocky trail, some pretty darn spectacular cliff views, some technical rock scrambling & some rock slab work.

Unfortunately for me today it was my hardest day out during my 6 Week Elevation Training Block for the Te Araroa Trail in New Zealand.

Whilst my Hike Plan didn’t go as hoped, I was successful in the end. Today I made a major misjudgement with my 11.5kg backpack weight.

Throughout this video, I’ll share insights into my days Nutrition & Hydration Plan, do a deep dive into my Training Goals for the day & explain more about how I take care of my older body whilst negotiating this difficult terrain.
