This is the classic route from Hikurangi Range to Waterfall Hut. From many angles the head of Pinnacle Creek often looks eroded and dodgy, however there's a nice line right through the middle, that is straightforward so long as you locate the correct entrance. Coming up just follow the main watercourse.
