East Ridge to Syme Hut via South Ridge:
This route will ascend the eastern ridge of Taranaki on Saturday and then decend to Syme hut on the south ridge to stay the night. Sunday will be walking decending the rest of the south ridge and returning to the car. This will require a similar level of fitness to the north ridge summit route but the terrain will be more technical and the exposure will be higher.
