Yeah I’ve driven the vinegar hill road a few times before, last time was in the nutty oversteering big boost DR30 sedan in the wet

thing is SH4 between Wanganui and Ohakune (via Raetihi) has also been suggested for its abundance of mean touge corners… that would allow me to chop across to the Desert Road and continue back up to Taupo but it also means I’d miss out vinegar hill entirely unless I ended up backtracking by about 75km

vinager hill, take you to feliding but its a sweet sweet touge, we normaly take that road ( long cut one may say ) to palmy, has great views……….but in further reading of said maps it seams like you are coming in from napier so you may be missing this pass
