Putangirua Pinnacles were formed 120,000 years ago by rain eroding an ancient gravel deposit. It’s gravely and had a surprising dry, desert feel. We walked through the riverbed and circled up through the mountains.
And yes, like many places in New Zealand, Putangirua Pinnacles was a Lord of the rings filming location.
