The long, gentle descent north east from Rangioteatue is easy going on gravel and tussock tops. From the saddle west of Three Johns, a brief steep climb is required, 60m up the first of the Three Johns, to reach the beginning of the tussock spur descending north west to the Waipawa Saddle. This route is unmarked, with no clear ground trail.
