From the end of the Te Kahika Flats, it’s another 1km downriver to the confluence with The Great Unknown. The river mouth is a tight gorge, wading the only option, but the valley opens up a little beyond, and travel on narrow stony banks becomes possible: 30% wading, 70% shingle banks. A shingle fan drops on the east, and we look out for the 1st stream on the west after it - the start of the route into the Motu.
