A wonderful experience!
Maunga Hikurangi的点评
点评：In early December 2025, my husband and I took the tour up Maunga Hikurangi, and it was a highlight of our four-week trip to New Zealand. Our tour guide was the brilliant, knowledgeable, and personable Monty Manuel and he was so generous to spend about six hours with us that day.
We learned about the Ngati Porou iwi (tribe) including their legends, attachment to the land, current governance, and traditions. We loved hearing about Monty’s way of life in Ruatoria, family traditions, and some background/economics of Ruatoria and the East Coast region.
Riding with Monty in a six-seater 4WD 4x4 of- road vehicle, we went 2/3s up the mountain to the nine carved pou or sculptures that make up the Te Takapau a Maui (Maui Whakairo). There we learned about stories of Maui, a founding ancestor of both Aotearoa and the Ngati Porou iwi.
Since this adventure, I’ve tried to continue to learn about the Te Reo language and about history, legends and traditions of the Māori people and culture, no matter how difficult it is to get my head around the sounds of this unfamiliar language. I so wish we had more time on New Zealand’s East Coast.
Note – we drove about two hours up from Gisborne that morning and it was a beautiful drive. Three years ago, the area got hit hard by Cyclone Gabrielle. While some road construction is still going on, it’s quite easy drive to Ruatoria and I strongly recommend this tour.

翻译：2025年12月初，我和丈夫参加了希库朗伊山（Maunga Hikurangi）的登山之旅，这成为了我们为期四周的新西兰之旅的一大亮点。我们的导游是博学多识、热情友好的蒙蒂·曼努埃尔（Monty Manuel），他非常慷慨地抽出大约六个小时的时间陪伴我们。
我们了解了纳蒂波鲁部落（Ngati Porou iwi），包括他们的传说、与土地的联系、当前的治理方式和传统。我们很喜欢听蒙蒂讲述他在鲁阿托里亚（Ruatoria）的生活方式、家族传统，以及鲁阿托里亚和东海岸地区的一些背景和经济情况。
我们乘坐蒙蒂的六座四驱越野车，沿着山路向上行驶了三分之二，来到了由九座雕刻精美的毛伊柱（Te Takapau a Maui，又称Maui Whakairo）组成的毛伊神庙。在那里，我们了解了毛伊的故事，他是新西兰（Aotearoa）和纳蒂波鲁部落的始祖。
自那次探险之后，我一直努力学习毛利语，以及毛利人的历史、传说和传统文化，尽管要理解这种陌生语言的发音有多么困难。我真希望能在新西兰东海岸多待些时间。
注：那天早上我们从吉斯伯恩驱车大约两小时，沿途风景优美。三年前，该地区遭受了飓风加布里埃尔的重创。虽然部分路段仍在施工，但前往鲁阿托里亚的路程相当便捷，我强烈推荐这条路线。
